1973 Pontiac Ventura Base 350V8 ONE OWNER

This is a one-owner vehicle, hat has been maintained amazingly well (most, f not all, f the service records are available - see the pictures of the paperwork saved).
As mentioned in the list of features - it has hand-controls installed for the accelerator and brake - but - these are EASILY removed - they're not welded on - just a few nuts and bolts, nd they will be gone. That being said - the foot controls work perfectly - even with the hand controls installed. The car drives just fine using only the foot controls, ut, gain - the hand controls can be removed in a few minutes.
Just about everything is well-maintained original everything - the only after-market addition is the air-conditioning, hich blows cold.
It's been painted once or twice - but it's still the original color. There are a couple of minor rust locations - on the front edge of the hood, n one of the wheel wells - but - they is no body rot that I know of, nd I believe that these areas could be addressed relatively easily.
The only interior area that's worn / damaged is the driver's side chair-back (see picture).
I LOVE this car, ould LOVE to keep it - I picture it with 5-spoke Pontiac Ralley wheels (with the matching beauty rings and center-hubs)...new raised white-letter tires...and you immediately increate curb-appeal many times...but...it's just not practical for me...maybe if my son didn't go away to college but, e did, o - I have no one to work on it on weekends with me...
