I wish I knew what magazine that was from, I found it on the boards somewhere, here's a larger pic.

It looks like it says "TA" in the bottom corner next to the page number, but thats not ringing any bells for me...maybe someone can figure it out.

Well, we have pictures of two originals, one from the ad and one from the article, both are 2-dr sedans (wing windows). Its tough to say that they were all sedans, but it does match what the article said, and it does make sense with the pricing. (even though my 2-dr-ht Tempest T-37 350/TH350 WITH carpet LOL only sold for $3033.09 new, not a lot more than the Magnum 400 price, but I could imagine tacking a R/A III onto that would kick it up quite a bit!)

Oh, I may have been exaggerating a little on the "dime a dozen" thing. I know of 3 LeMans Sports (one is a drag car, one is junk, and the other has goofy nose stripes), 1 LeMans two-door sedan (drag car), and one LeMans Sport convertible (very nice!), but I haven't seen any other '70 Tempests (let alone T-37s!).

TA = Thunder Am magazine, now High Performance Pontiac Magazine. I recall that article was in one of the Thunder Am issues around 1982 or 1983.

yes it is. I have many pictures of it. Also, my interior pic of the car with the parody cloth bench and radio block off plate has been posted on PY before.

Looks like a woman in a Fiero gave it a shot.
