1962 Pontiac Tempest Reviews, Pricing & Specs

I may be one sided - just bought this car with 4 cyl 4 barrel 4 speed coupe. it has 50000 miles on it handles well or easily can do most everything one handed. Brakes are not too powerful and sometimes the back tires break loose in a kinda snap around corners due to the ind suspension and rope drive. overall this car is fun and gets tons of attention - the 4 cylinder is huge (3.2 Litre - over 500 lbs) but with the engine in the front and the trans in the back it feels comfortable. mine is in pretty good shape overall so it seems to be ahead of its time sometimes I forget I am in a 50 year old car Except it rumbles pretty good over 60 - mostly stay here or 55 on long runs - shes an old lady treat her nice - anyway I love it way to go john delorean and companyJun 06, 2012
