Default Antlocer SD Tempest *new-ish* photos

Just ran across this 'Michigan Widetrackers' event photos page with newer pictures of the Ebay Tempest, so I thought I would share. You'll have to scroll to about the middle of this very long (but cool) photos page. Sorry, wouldn't let me copy the photos out. Anybody in here a Widetracker?

By way of an update, the car is now stripped and mounted on the rotisserie, with the driveline being test fitted.

What driveline are they going to use? I guess they're keeping the big rear end? motor and tranny?

That's awesome. I thought I read some debate on whether or not to build car factory or how it was raced

Is it the same motor stan raced?

100 percent back the way it left the factory!Only 2 left that way!The most unique piece of pontiac engineering piece of racing history.Think about the money spent to build 20 to 24 SD transaxles and there are only 2 left in the world running in a correct car!NO contest in my mind.Tom

It is one I had a shot at before I bought the one I did have.It was on Ebay a while back.It has a broken main shaft.It will be restored and put aside and will go with the car if it is ever sold.Tom
