#1962 PONTIAC TEMPEST CRACK#

This engine is PontiacвЂ™s вЂњTrophy FourвЂќ, a 195 (194.5) cubic-inch вЂњslant-fourвЂќ, basically the right half of a 389 V8 вЂ“ no really! And, if that isnвЂ™t enough, this car has the coveted вЂњpower packвЂќ which is a factory four-barrel carburetor giving this engine 166 hp compared to 110 hp! These engines were known to shake, so they were mounted on flexible rubber mounts, and the unusual driveshaft and rear transaxle further dampened the engine shake.

I think I see a crack in the driverвЂ™s side of the windshield? ThatвЂ™s another thing for the list, and another reason itвЂ™s priced below the average value. You can see that the door panels have seen better days, but if they arenвЂ™t rusty, as in with rust-through, the next owner can spruce those things up in a few weekends. The interior looks good, but the seller is including a вЂњcarpet kit and rear seat upholstery kit included (Started an interior refresh)вЂќ so thatвЂ™s nice. They mention that the top needs work, or actually it needs вЂњtop upholstery, hydraulic pump and actuators rebuilt for power top (currently manually operated).вЂќ That may explain why there are no photos of the car with the top up, and why itвЂ™s priced below what it seems like it should be. ItвЂ™s an all-original car owned by the same family since new вЂ“ the seller purchased it from the grandson of the original owner. This car looks fantastic to me, the market must be soft for these cars, I canвЂ™t believe that itвЂ™s still for sale for this price. The seller says that it has, вЂњsolid floors, a couple quarter size rust through spots in trunk.вЂќ Hopefully things arenвЂ™t too bad underneath. The body looks as close to perfect as can be on this car. 1962 was the last year for the Tempest LeMans as in 1963 the LeMans became a separate series. This isnвЂ™t the fire-breathing LeMans that we all know and love, but a LeMansВ top-line trim package for the Tempest.

somewhere in the US, the seller doesnвЂ™t give a city or state,В but the license plates say California. ItвЂ™s already price below what I would have thought, given HagertyвЂ™s $7,700 #3 вЂњgoodвЂќ value or the $11,900 #2 вЂњexcellentвЂќ value. ItвЂ™s listed on eBay with a Buy It Now price of $5,900 orВ you can make an offer. This beautiful little car is a 1962 Pontiac Tempest LeMans Convertible and it sure looks like a nice one.
