1970 Pontiac Tempest

Vehicle Description / Story
Saved from the scrap yard in 2018, this is a homage to younger days of running a LeMans the same year and drivetrain. We loved running around in that thing back in the day! Unfortunately it burned to the ground because of an engine fire, so when we found this “same body style” we picked it up. I completely overhauled the engine (400) tranny (TH400) and rear end (2.58 open) in my shop along with body work and painting it (my first paint job). It still needs some interior work, but we are rolling once again!
