Here is my wife's project car. It is a 4 cylinder automatic with an odometer reading of 42,000 miles. The body is very straight with minimum rust. It needs paint, windshield, truck lid, passenger door glass, and interior. We bought it without a title, but now has a state bonded title and is licensed. It was parked in a basement garage for over 20 years and sold at an estate sale. We bought it from another Pontiac enthusiast north of Chicago.
Plans are to restore it back to near stock condition, with a few heavy duty upgrades. There is a V8 trans axle and suspension, radiator, console shifter, and windshield washer/pump collected and waiting to transplant into it. Probably, some high performance parts for the 4 cylinder, also. The color will remain blue with a blue interior.
Our plans are to have one of the tempests ready for the reunion next year at Norwalk.
