Introduction to PY, and my 1960 Ventura Restoration
Hello, My name is Dan and live on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State. I found this forum from another member at 348-409 who posted a link. I did a search many times trying to find a Pontiac fourm with no luck so, very happy I was able to find you guys.
I have had several Pontiacs over the years and currently have a 60 Ventura that I am doing a frame off on. I started the project this past January and hope to have it completed by the first of the year. I am looking for a fan shroud and posted a want add in the wanted area. I have the chassis completed and am now in the body and paint part of the project. Thanks for letting me join and here are a few pics of the project. Looks like I need to resize my pics. Will work on that. Last edited by 421-6speed; 10-01-2015 at 12:04 AM. |

Ok had to move to the PC to post pics. I stepped the lower control arm 2" and used Scarebird disc brake brackets which allow you to install disc brakes on factory spindles. Here are a few more.

I had a dustless blaster come and blast the body and all body panels then applied epoxy sealer, and started on the body work.

Welcome to the site, your work looks cool. There is another Pontiac site closer to your area, but mostly GTO'S
http://www.northwestlegends.com, but may be of help if needing connections. No where near what this site is.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
