66 Tempest Sprint
Here's photo of my 66 Tempest Sprint Sports Coupe Post back in the day. Photo was taken in August 1968. I bought the car new in May 1966 after waiting 2 months for it. 3:55 Saft-T-Track, 3 speed, AM radio, seat topper, glove box light and trunk light. That was it. Ran low 15's at Drag Way 42 and Thompson Speedway. Used to really upset the 283 Chey guys to get beat by a "6". Later in 1968 head problems and the fact it was out of warranty, lead to the installation of a 67 GTO 400 Ram Air III with a 65 tri power and a Muncie 4 speed. Then the fun on the street really began. Sold it in 1970 for $650, at that time the OHC-6 was long gone and the car had about 90,000 miles on it.
