Description
This 1966 Pontiac Tempest Custom four-door hardtop sedan was refurbished following the owner’s acquisition in 2021, with work including refinishing the body in satin black and reupholstering the cabin in two-tone blue vinyl. The car is powered by a 326ci V8 linked with a two-speed automatic transmission, and the engine was overhauled and fitted with replacement pistons, bearings, and pushrods as well as a high-performance camshaft, an HEI-style distributor, and an Edelbrock 600-cfm carburetor and intake manifold in 2019. Further equipment includes power steering, power-assisted front disc brakes, American Racing Torq Thrust wheels, and a custom center console with a Bluetooth audio system. This Tempest Custom hardtop sedan is now offered at no reserve with records, a Protect-O-Plate, a build sheet, and a clean North Carolina title in the seller’s name. The pillar-less four-door body left the factory finished in Cameo Ivory, and the seller reports that the finish was stripped, bodywork repairs were completed, and it was repainted in single-stage satin black under current ownership. Exterior details include stacked LED headlights, tinted windows, chrome bumpers and trim, black rubber mud flaps, and dual exhaust outlets. Work under current ownership is said to have included replacing the windshield, window seals, and wiper motor.
