Default 62 Tempest project pictures lots of them

Hi all, I posted a little in the lounge about this project.
Just thought I would share some pictures of it.

this is not mine,a guy I met while I was looking for an 8 track player
which I did find a brand new in the box never opened Panasonic.

anyway he talked me into fixiing up as a daily driver.



















does anyone have one of these, just a good driver and passenger side fender?

I've got a grill hanging in my shop. Much better condition than that one. I started to take off the anodizing, then I found a better one. It has a blemish on the passenger side. And still needs the rest of the anodizing removed. This 62 needs a lot of TLC. Is it a runner? Seats? A guy on this forum needs that left fender. A jewel waiting to be polished. John

John, can you post / or pm a pic of the grill and price. that
way I can let the owner know.
I am going to use that black fender, and I need a pass. side fender.

i have all the seats and they have been redone some time ago.

it does not run they took some parts off of it but I thinks all there
in boxes and boxes of parts. It does turn w/ the battery hooked up.

thanks

P. M. sent. Some damage, age dents. Started to remove the anodizing. Before anyone chimes in, it's the right side if you are looking at it. It's the drivers side.John

I asked Ames to start reproducing these rear pans, along with the front fenders and valance panels. They are looking into it.
