    and a repaint. Looks like maybe someone did rust repair on the lower quarter panel and just used a "close enough" paint color, lol

    Fix and blend. Even if a guy had to put 5k more into it, it'd be tough to beat at the price.

    There are enough spots and mismatched paint colors already that you need to blend the whole car......

    To be "mint", sure. To be a sweet ass driver, no. You'd hate both my Cadillacs in person :eek:;)

    lol, I am sure that is not the case. BUT I guess I may be a little picky when it comes to my drivers, lol! If I bought it with the paint already blended, I would be fine. BUT if I was going to have someone do it, I would probably paint it all.....

    66electrafied Just tossing in my nickel's worth

    Very pretty; - 1961-62 was IMHO the high water mark of GM styling. Best of the non-fin cars and those incredible interiors and colours. The only model I didn't care much for from 1961 was surprisingly enough, the Buick.

    I love that color. Love the body style too. Reminds me of the Olds Starfire, another iconic design.

    1961 Pontiac Ventura Bubble Top, with 8 lug wheels. I spent a lot of time looking for a solid bubble top before finding this all original with 99k miles. Was hoping to just touch up the original paint, but ended up painting the top and now thinking about painting the body. Just testing the waters before I start, because I have too many cars. I had the wheels powder coated and put wide white wall radials on it. New lug nuts, carpet, etc. in the trunk. I’ll take the add down if it sells or if I start working on it. Please no dealers or help selling. Call me with any questions. The first pictures are when I brought it home, then a few updated from a couple days ago.
