They didn't sell many Venturas, so that's a very rare car. The fact it's so rare might make it more valuable, I don't know, but unfortunately for me it's on a Chevrolet chassis with a straight six engine. My interest is for one of the earlier non-smog GT-GTE cars that were based on an aircooled VW chassis, and the intention would be a Subaru conversion. Those little cars are more sport, less luxe.
I suspect this Ventura will go to some collector, but have no idea who, nor could I suggest where to look. Even though it's not aircooled The Samba will probably be the matrix for finding him, because most Puma guys go through there, although he probably won't be an A/C VW guy. Good luck with it. |

He claims it has a VW engine. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) It's a VW engine and chassis Ok.... It's NOT a Puma, Puma did not make it. it was made by a company called L'Automobile Company. It used Puma and VW parts but it wasn't made by Puma. Dealers sometimes mistakenly called it a Puma Ventura. It is very rare in the USA so the owner would have very close to a one of a kind car. The neat thing is it would be a affordable one off as it is a VW drive train. http://wj2d.100megsdns.com/louisven.html (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/wj2d.100megsdns.com-26-1386387101.1.jpg) BTW the six cylinder is a Puma...a Puma GTB |
