With the "thanks" added, does that mean you are going to place a bid? :ranger:

If not in the midst of building my 68 goat right now, yes I would make a serious attempt at owning that.

I'm very fond of the Tempest models, especially the 67's, I've past that link on to several friends.


Thanks again,
Frank

At $14,500 now. What should it sell for?

300deluxe 08-27-2018 05:42 PM

I would think it would be worth around $25,000. Thats a hell of a car! I like the car so much, I don't think I would change anything. Maybe put some stamped steel wheels on it, hubcaps, and some white stripe G70-14 or 15 tires for a sleeper look...you could burn em for 2 city blocks!

I have been watching it too. Not sure why as I don't have room for another car. LOL I love the color combo and the build seems to be very nice. I know you can't duplicate what is there for the current bid. But when it comes to modifying vehicles it is hard to judge the value. I would not make it into a GTO. I think it is more "unique" as a Tempest. However I think it would look great with either body colored steel wheels and dog dish caps or black colored steel wheels and caps. Also would put a stock steering wheel in the car, remove Royal sticker and Judge stripes, possibly relocate head end unit to glovebox and install a "stock" non functional radio. I like the sleeper look and then when you hear it fire up or see it up closer you realize it "ain't your grandma's Tempest"!

If it's this car. That I saw at Norwalk. It's a real nice clean car.

Is the seller a member here?

Nice car! Also nice to see someone who takes the time to write up a proper ad.

It is the same car you saw at Norwalk. Any idea what it ran? Somebody needs to buy this car so I quit looking at it! LOL I have no room for another car but that has not stopped me before. I already have a similar type car (78 Formula that looks stock on the outside but is built to run). However this Tempest is so nice I just can't seem to get it off my mind.
