The Silver Dollar Pontiac
Another 2006 RM lot with celebrity provenance was this 1964 Pontiac Bonneville Convertible originally owned by Hank Williams Jr. Known as "The Silver Dollar Pontiac," it was created by "Rodeo Tailor to the Stars" Nudie Cohn and is festooned with 350 authentic silver dollars from 1922 to 1934, themselves collectible, and more than 20 guns, also authentic but nonfunctioning. Humorously described by the auctioneer as "very subtle," it sold for $214,500 (including buyer's premium).
