Description

It's time for you to choose your own adventure. Do you want to be part of the Nova crowd that's around at every car show? Do you want to be a standout on your own? How about both? This 1973 Pontiac Ventura has all the fastback style of the GM X-Body crowd, ut in a package that is much more unique.The metallic elements in the original shade of this Burma Brown coupe really brighten up in the sunlight, specially against its dual wave Sprint package stripe. It has the same silhouette as the now-legendary compact and fast Chevy Novas, ut the front end has an aggressive look that Pontiacs always brought to the table. Light and muscular, he Ventura gets all the Pontiac design cues right, rom the split grille and hood bulge up front, o the taillamp design that was inspired by the first generation Firebird. The Rally II wheels are another great visual link to Pontiac's muscle car tradition. They have a stylistic flair with the PMD (Pontiac Motor Division) center cap that gives them a hint of indestructible industrial design.Step inside this Ventura, nd you'll see even more great performance car touches that make this one so cool. The interior keeps a similar color pattern as the exterior, ith fresh brown carpeting against white vinyl. This pristine and sterile color is in perfect condition on everything from the high-back bucket seats to the manual transmission shift knob. The driver gets a soft touch original Pontiac three-spoke steering wheel and a few chrome touches thanks to the AM/FM/cassette stereo and aftermarket oil pressure gauge. One of the coolest features on these cars are the rear windows that roll down, hich has a unique look against the exterior chrome b-pillar. You can cruise like this well into the fall thanks to the strong heater/defrost unit.Power ratings were getting zapped by 1973 as compression ratios were plummeting. So this car has a bit of a performance secret... It doesn't carry the 350 cubic-inch V8, ut instead it's stepped down to a slightly older 307 Chevy small-block. It gives better power flexibility and makes a much deeper performance parts catalog available to this Pontiac. For example, his V8 already has an Edelbrock intake and four-barrel carburetor, s well as performance headers, nd a mean-sounding dual exhaust. All of this combined gives it a far superior performance than anything that came out of the factory in 1973. This is mated to a fun, our-speed manual transmission. You'll love how this versatility allows you to stay in the optimal powerband, ut there's more to this gearbox. The extra gear combined with the power steering and power brakes (with discs up front) give this Ventura the legs to cruise comfortably all day without you or the car breaking a sweat.This Ventura offers great performance and that unique aggressive Pontiac appearance. It's the perfect way to have something a little different that fits in with any car show crowd. Call now!!
