well thought I get ya caught up on what's happening with the Tempest. about 10 days ago, got a call From Brian, After alot of deliberation,for Mainly financial reasons, (musicians don't get signing bonuses with there record deals! Home, and family, and bills come first!) he told me he's gonna have to sell it! well, after kicking myself for not Buying the 66 GTO he sold to Jeff Verdi when he offered it to me first, this time I stepped up and bought the Tempest! I know Dave (Brian's Dad) would approve because the car meant alot to him. kinda keeping it in the local pontiac family this way, and Brian will have first divs if I decided to sell it in the future! don't know how long it will be before she's on the track, got some finishing work to do (wiring, interior, bumpers,Etc,) gonna be putting my 66 Tempest Drag project up for sale soon. here's a few new pics!

That's a lot of late nights in the garage right there. Sweet! The same color combo as my 63 Cat Vert.

Beautiful car! Looking at the pictures of yours motivated me enough that I went out in the garage and started my front Wilwood conversion. I've got it all torn down, now I just need to figure out how to get the center out of the drum.

I noticed your coil overs are installed in front of the housing. I've never seen them done like that before. Very interesting. Do you think it will react the same on the strip?

I'm guessing they put them in front because of all the bracing on the backside, can't remember who it was that did the chassis work, Bruce Wright (an Ex Super Stock racer from the 70's/80's/90's)looked at it, and said it would be fine as long as you used the right spring weight. he told us what weight to use, so i'll be changing them out.
