Tempest 455

Thought some B body people would like to see this car. Long story and it's kind of crazy. Will try and make this the short version.
I had a street/strip 700HP Pontiac Tempest I made to look like an N/SS car. Had it for 21 years and although a very nice car, taste changed, grew tired of it and wanted another Mopar. I put the car up for sale earlier this year and stated in my ads, I was open to interesting trades. Guy contacts me asking if I would trade for a 65 Pro Street Belvedere A990 clone. He really wanted my ’64 for his wife, she used to race one. We talked many, many times and struck a deal. Met halfway, looked each over, traded cars and hit the road.
Pictures don't do the car justice. Its way nicer in person and the attention to detail is amazing. Car is as shiny/detailed underneath. I loved these cars since I was a little kid. "Mike Wilkins" (Music City Mopar Club) went WAY above and beyond and came over early in the AM and trailered me up there and back same day. I think he was as excited as I was!
With the car, I got the super stock hood scoop that's going on and a brand new set of slicks with it.
Really looking forward to having some fun with this car next year! :hello2:
