I was Suprized to find I did not have the only OHC-6 at the recent Bob Sellers Show in Michigan, this very Nice 66 Tempest Sprint was there when I pulled in. 1st let me say that I am almost shocked to see any 66/67 Tempest 2 door that has Survied!!!!!! And has not been made into yet anouther GTO Clone. Very happy to see one!!!!

Now I have a Question about 66 Pontiac A-body Red Interiors, This is the second Red 66 I have seen, The other being a 66 GTO that when I knew it it was still owned by the original owner who ordered the car (he passed away about 10 years ago) he ordered it "tripple Red" Red Paint, Vinyl Top, and Interior. When He received it he was shocked that it had a White Headliner, he was eventually giving $50 off the car to take it as is. And he Complained that at several car shows he was marked down for his Custom headliner, as nothing on the trim tag indicated that it came with a white headliner.
Now I see this 66 Tempest, Red with a Red Interior, also with a White Headliner. Now don't take it wrong, as I think it looks good with the white sprint Stripe, and the GTO also had a White pin Stripe that also set off the Headliner well. Was this standard? Optional? Or did they just run short of Red headliners some days? Just Curious in Michigan.
