Description of 1960 Pontiac VENTURA 2 DOOR COUPE

What we have here for sale is anextremely rare numbers matching 1960 Pontiac Ventura 2 doorBubbleTop Coupe in need of restoration, This car has an automatic transmission, the engine is a high-compression two-barrel 389 rated at 283 horsepower at 4,400 rpm and 413 pound-feet at 2,800. Its 10.25:1 compression and requires premium fuel.
Fortunately this car was just rescued by our company (Real Estate) and is now bing offered to the highest bidder at a no reserve auction,we believe this is a one owner car that was in the same family since new. the car was adaily driver up until 6 years ago when the father/owner suddenlypassed away, unfortunately for the car it just sat in the driveway to deteriorate.
The car has nice sports rims and tires,dualexhaust, there is rust on the body, the interior is original and complete and all there, carpet looks nice,dashboard looks very good, all body trim/chrome and lights are on the car and in decent to good condition, driver's door wassprayed light blue at some point, (can see green showing under the red paint) we can't open the trunk (no trunk/door key, we only have the ignition key) hard to find windshield and back window in good condition but side windows have cracks (easy and cheap to replace) frame looks to be solid.
The engine oil level is full and we just wanted to make sure its not locked so we connected a battery and cranked it without any problems (wedidn't want to start and run it without giving it a full tune up first but the ownerensured us there was nothing wrong with the engine andtransmission when parked)
Please google these cars and see how rare they are and what they sell for, a nice example will fetch an easy $39,000- $80,000 when restored so its well worth the effort!

*Just to answer some questions, those parts you see in thepicturelaying on the floor by the driver side are from another car, the front bench seat was taken apart to beupholstered but never did so its just sitting there but not broken or missing anything... allmechanical components are intact on the car and nothing is missing.

*the car rolls andsteers freely without any wheel or brakes locking up,I'm sure if we tinker with it a bit we can start and drive it around without any issues.
thanks
