'63 Bonneville Convertible "Brass Hat" Car - Per Build Sheet

[scuncio]

I've always heard the 'Brass Hat' term to describe a company car ordered by some managerial / exec type, but I've never seen it called out on the build sheet! Pretty cool.

needs to be restore ....but who would step up...i think the people that love those cars are dumping cars...because of their age etc..such a shame...

I say it to myself all the time: How do such neat cars wind up this way??

But I know the answer: Because for decades they were just cars.

991 is the code for a Zone office, so 07 991 would be the Pontiac Zone.

35-997 is PMD Engineering.
