Gateway Classic Cars of Indianapolis is proud to feature this 1962
Pontiac Tempest! Famously known for its role in the film "My Cousin
Vinny" where they showcased a 63 Tempest. This Tempest is a prime
example for the genius engineering that came out of GM in the early
60's with styling notes not matched by it's competitors. As famed
chief engineer John DeLorean oversaw production designs on the
Tempest line. Following the popularity of the Chevrolet Corvair,
Pontiac set out to follow the success with a new kind of compact
car. The LeMans was a trim package that allowed more luxurious
features not found in base model Tempests, such as bucket seats,
badging and was only available in two-door coupe body style. With
just 20% of cars on the road in 1962 being equipped with A/C, you
can rest assured that this is one of them that was optioned with
it! The A/C was rebuilt to run on modern refrigerant (134A). The
car is painted in "Cameo Ivory" with "Aqua Marine Poly"
interior.It's equipped with the 195 cubic inch four cylinder engine
mated to an automatic transmission. The 62 Tempest had full
independent suspension and a rear mounted transmission. A very
unique car with not many like it out there. Steal the spotlight at
the local car shows with this one-of-a-kind 1962 Pontiac Tempest
