For Sale: 1960 Pontiac Ventura in Lutz, Florida

Wide Track Pontiacs of the '60 are red-hot right now. Collectors have discovered that nobody did luxury and muscle better, and so a sleek 1960 Pontiac Ventura Bubble Top coupe really gets attention. Add in impressive factory colors inside and out, plenty of V8 power, and an A/C interior, and this is your perfect distinctive classic.


The factory-correct Coronado Red paint job is bright and sophisticated at the same time. It also helps that this example has been given the right investments over the years. This includes a modern clearcoat respray, and so it has a terrific gloss and shine. Plus, the white roof draws extra attention to the desirable "bubble top" pillarless hardtop. And it combines with the whitewall tires for a well-coordinated two-tone. There was even more investment in the brightwork. The grille, full trim (including bold hood streak,) and wraparound chrome bumpers all have a mirror-like quality. And the way it all fits together tells you there was a lot of time, care, and investment in getting this coupe looking so good.


Pontiac's triple-tone interior is another one of those details that really made them style kings. The two exterior colors combine with a deep maroon on the seats to create something that's both stylish and coordinated. And the conditioning of everything, right down to the carpets demonstrates more solid investments in this coupe. It's the kind of total presentation that you'll want to show off, so it's great that the pillarless hardtop really lets people get a closer look. This has a terrific vintage style, but they also made the right upgrades to make sure you'll really want to cruise this classic. You have an AM/FM/CD stereo discreetly mounted in the glovebox, a tach added to the steering column, and this big coupe cabin can stay cold with modern R134a air conditioning.


Just like the rest of the car, the engine bay was also restored for showing off. The bold Pontiac blue block, shining valve covers, matching air topper, and all the right decals come together in this tidy setup makes this the kind of car you'll proudly lift the hood at the shows. The 389 cubic-inch V8 inhales deeply from a proper Carter four-barrel carburetor, and it makes a sweet sound out of the dual exhaust. The undercarriage photos show how they invested over every inch during the restoration, and that's why this one feels solid on the road. Plus, power steering, power brakes, and a three-speed automatic transmission make the experience effortless. Grip is well in hand because the classic whitewalls hide a modern tread. Those are utilized on the cool factory eight-lug wheels, which are probably worth a small fortune all by themselves.


Complete with owner's manual, this is a standout coupe with all the features and investment you want. So don't let this bubble top Pontiac slip away, call today!
