Sorry Wareagle, I didn't realize you had asked a question:

Not sure on that T/A; It was something I just grabbed from the pile and I don't think there were any additional details given.

Re: the '63 Tempests - they all pretty much looked the same, except for a piece of masking tape stuck here or there.

George's car stayed local in Michigan for a while and at one time was owned by collector (and Pontiac employee) Dimitri Toth. We had an opportunity to buy it probably in the mid 70's, for about $3600, but decided that was too much to pay since it was completely disassembled.

It eventually found it's way to Arizona, to the McGroder collection, where the restoration was completed. From there it went to Minnesota where it is owned by "F.E.". The photo shown was taken by Guy Pauquette at an annual show held there.
