Beautiful car with a stunning color combo! Is that one of those 'half a v8' engines?

Both are beautiful cars & still owning one you bought when you were 18 is almost unheard of. Fantastic!

Both beautiful cars. Kudos for keeping them that way (g-d knows, it ain't easy, and not getting any easier as we age).

I still have my college graduation present of a new '82 Firebird SE, but she's looking pretty sad these days (on the waiting list for some real TLC). I miss driving that go-kart. LOL

Enjoy. That Tempest looks really sharp in those colors (as has already been said).
