Gateway Classic Cars of Louisville is proud to present this 1968
Pontiac Tempest Convertible! The Tempest was unveiled in 1960 for
the '61 model year and was to compete in the entry-level compact
class following the success of the Corvair. The car was well
received and would become Motor Trend Magazine's "Car of the Year!"
The Tempest would see many design changes with 3 true Generations
spanning 10 years until 1970. There was a 4th generation made for
Canada and Isreal when the name was reprised for a rebadged Corsica
in the late 80s, but a purist won't talk about that. Here we have a
very sharp '68 model Tempest Convertible, the first year of the 3rd
generation! The Alpine Blue paint looks great. The power black soft
top is in nice shape and is in working order. The black boot cover
is present to cover the top when it is down and also looks good.
The color really shows off the bold lines of this very well! The
black vinyl interior looks comfortable and is in very nice shape.
Under the hood is a rebuilt 350ci V8 with power running down
through a rebuilt 2-speed automatic transmission. The car sounds
nice and runs and drives out very well. The current owners have had
her for over 22 years, acquired from a private owner. The title is
clean and clear and ready to be transferred into your name now!
This car is truly a sight to see, takes you back in time just
looking at her! Put the top down, fire her up and head out for a
fun night on the town. She is certain to turn heads anywhere you
go. Options on this Tempest include: A/C, Power Steering, Power
Brakes, Automatic Convertible Top, Vinyl Interior, AM/FM/CD Radio,
Seat Belts, Custom Wheels, and Radial Tires. This 1968 Pontiac
Tempest Convertible is offered by our Louisville Showroom and can
be seen in greater detail including 100+ HD pictures and an HD
