Springmist Green 1968 GTO hardtop owned by Adam Colson from Simi Valley, California. Here's what Adam had to say, "I am the second owner of this car. I bought it off the original owner my senior year of college in 1995. I have not had the time or resources to restore it yet. Runs great but just needs a little body work and paint. The only damage to the body is visible in the photo (left rear quarter panel). The only rust is a little bit trapped under the vinyl top."CLICK-> 
Take a look at this pink 1968 LeMans hardtop with a white vinyl top and white interior. It was sent in by Al. Al says, "Here is a picture of my... uhmmmm I mean my wife's 1968 LeMans special ordered from the factory in pastel pink. This picture shows the original paint still on the car. I bought this car mainly for the 1967 "WS" code HO engine that I need for my black '67 GTO convertible (page 20 of your 1967 lots). But my wife fell for the orginal factory pink and now wants me to restore it, good thing she didn't say that she wanted me "drive it". Just kidding, it's kind of a kewl car."CLICK->

This 1968 Tempest is owned by Mike, a restoration specialist for KAR Mustang, a classic Mustang shop in Columbus, Ohio. He says he loves Pontiacs with a passion. His first car was a 1969 Custom S and he has owned a few Pontiacs since then, from a 1978 t-top Trans Am to a frame up restored 1968 Firebird. Here is what Mike has to say about this Tempest, "I am sending a few pics of my frame off restoration/modification of my 1968 Tempest, after admiring this car for years watching the the young owner drive it daily and basically abuse this car, I heard from my wife one day when I walked in from work that it was for sale. I drove the less than 1 mile from
my house and struck a deal for $1200 if he could wait until payday. He agreed and when I got paid, let's just say that driving that car home was one of the best feelings. It is still early in the game. Time is hard to come by, but I hope to get some good work time on it next summer. I am not planning on going wild with this car but am getting rid of the stock running gear for a little more excitement and have already purchased the needed item to change it to bucket seats and a floor shift. The car is pretty solid for an Ohio car, but still needs some work on the body. The floors are surprisingly rust free!"CLICK-> 
Mike removed the Tempest's body from the frame with the help of some extra hands. His grandpa and wife helped. They used a 4x4 post stretched across the underside and two bottle jacks. They jacked the car up and rolled the chassis right out, well, not right out. It did take a little working and finesse. The body now sits on blocks. CLICK-> 
Here's a close up of the frame and a whole bunch of parts.PICTURE SET CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE ... |
