  6. Lots of those out there. Roy Rogers, Kid Rock, Buck Owen, all Pontiac conversions. Buck's is mounted over the bar at his Crystal Palace in Bakersfield.

  7. It's a Pontiac Bonneville Nudie-Mobile. Nudie Cohn was the famous Nashville tailor that created the kind of suits for country music stars (you see Pierce wearing one), but he also created a string of ostentatious cars. A classic American rags-to-riches story, a Ukranian Jew (born Nuta Kotlyarenko) that was sent to America as a child to escape the Soviet pogroms, and made good.

    1. I don't think Hank Jr. made that kind of money when Webb Pierce was selling top records thru the 50's! I might be wrong tho...........
