Default '73 Ventura parts

Where to post Ventura parts for sale?

I am modifying my '73 Ventura into a dedicated race car. I have a lot of parts for available. It was a stripped down 6 cyl., bench seat granny car (no carpet!).

It has a decent interior (front bench is worn in some spots), perfect dash pad, nice dash (73,000 miles on odometer), glass, window regulators, door panels, etc. Still has stock spiral shocks! AM radio, heater controls, etc. Also has a running Chevy 250 straight six and a powerglide.

Let me know what you may need before it all goes on eBay. Shipping would be from Horsham, PA 19002.

Are rear frame rails available for this car? Someone must have pulled this car with a hook in the passenger rear frame rail and bent it about a 1/2 inch.

Thanks!

What color was the dash pad? Which style and color are the door panels and rear side panels? Are the B-pillar moldings still in good shape? Are the little rubber strips that go over the rear side panels and the door jambs still there.

Any pics I would be interested in all of this, pretty much everything but the seats, lol.

Dash pad, door panels, etc. are all black. I don't know the different trim levels, but I assume that this is the base. Have to check the b-pillar moldings and rubber strips. I am sure they are there, but not sure of condition. I will get pictures of all of this over the weekend. Do you need seat belts too? They are all there and in great condition. I will pm my contact info. Shelly

Is a 73 rear bumper the same for a 74? If so I may need the rear bumper, as well as the heater control.

73 and 74 bumpers are physically different. 73 was flat on top ridge, 74 is beveled. Mount up different in 74 because of 5 mph impact shocks. Dimensions are the same, and one can be made to work on the other with some fab work.
