Pontiac Tempest (1968)
for sale

Price: US $1,800.00

Description:

1968 Pontiac Tempest. 350 Pontiac engine, 2 speed automatic. This is a non-running car. It rolls easy. The car has been stored for the last 20 years. I bought it in 1996 as a parts car for a 68 GTO I was restoring. Never did finish the 68 GTO, [sold it unrestored about 6 yrs ago]. When I bought this car it ran very good. The engine had a nice loping idle, so I'm pretty sure it has a mild cam. For the first 15 years I owned it I would start it every couple years then about 5 years ago when I tried to start it and it had no spark. I never got around to looking into it after that. At this point it probably needs a rebuilt carb as well as fixing the spark problem. The engine spins freely and fast. I just don't have the time to get it running again. The 2-speed was rebuilt a couple months before I bought it. It was bought at a GTO swap meet that Wayne Garrison put on. [a well known GTO guy in Maryland] The car has a very nice hood and good useable doors. The front fenders are included and need patch panels at the bottom. The cowl is rotted at the bottom and has a few holes on the top. The quarters need some work and the decklid is rusted bad at the edge where they all rust, rear bumper is toast. The trunk pan is real solid with a few small holes and the usual rot at the wheel wells. The front and rear floor pans look great, just a small hole on the front passenger side. The interior is pretty rough. Yes...that is lambs wool on the dash and yes...all the trim, bumpers and grille are painted green...that's the way I bought it. .gotta love it! This would be a great car to make a GTO tribute car or would make a great parts car. It is pretty much complete except for the hood hinges, 1 tail light lens and inside carpet. Obviously, if it was restored it would need a lot of work. Please be able to pay $250 deposit within 24 hrs. of auction ending via Paypal.
