I forgot you had that 74 Ventura. You should check out pontiacventura.com. Roland has a great site and he's got some really nice Ventura's on it. My 72 is on page 6, (I think), of the 1972 section. It's an ugly gold. They're old pics but I'll get some new ones here in the next day or so.

Sorry, it's actually on page 5 of the 1972 section on the very bottom.

Well, I actually did sell Hoss today. The original guy was still interested after not being able to find another 80-86 Ford with a 300-6 and we settled on $1500. So, I watched it go down the road to it's new home. It was a little sad to see it go, but all in all, I'm glad it's gone because I never really got that "into" it like I did my old 83 F-150 4x4.

Now I can concentrate on my Suburban and fix what needs fixin' and improve what needs improvin'. I'll still be online helping people that need it, I just won't be actually driving a Ford truck anymore.
