Vehicle Description
The 1963 Pontiac Tempest is a great car to start with as a Pro
Street custom build. It's small in size, light in weight, but the
Wide Track look makes it big in stature. So it's a terrific power
car to house a performance-built 505 cubic-inch V8 under the hood.
And when you're a true ProStreet car, you don't care about going
incognito. So the Screaming Yellow paint announces your presence
from almost as far away as the motor's rumble. This has true
race-ready upgrades like the huge six-inch cowl induction hood,
lightweight Lexan windshield, Lexan side windows, and
competition-style Centerline polished wheels. And when you peek
inside, the 10-point race, full racing seats, Pistol-grip shifter
w/electric solenoid, and so much more tell you this one was made to
own every inch of asphalt it touches. So take some extra time
looking through all the details, including the build highlights of
the monster under the hood.

This is quite a solid build. We're not talking about the kind of
car that's an expressway commuter (although you could be the last
to leave and the first to the office every day!) Instead, this is
the wild child that's just barely enough on the right side of the
law to get a license plate hung on the back. But you can feel the
total quality in the full build, and there are even receipts
showing over $10k invested for the motor and transmission build a
few years back. So for those who like ProStreet power and
distinction, this Pontiac is the one. Call today!!!
