Real Pontiac Tempest Visits our Model Railroad Museum
Author: cornerfieldhobby

This afternoon at Corner Field Model Railroad Museum & Hobby Shop, 2 customers from PA visited our museum layout & hobby shop. They drove here in their Pontiac Tempest. How Cool!!!

Whoa! I had a '65 that I won in a church raffle. Great little car for a 15 y.o. I had to wait a year to drive it, and then promptly wrecked it on an icy hill. Thanks for posting this.

Your welcome.

And what is interesting, is the fact how in the past, cars had their own character. Today they do not and much are all the same style, with no style.

I guess I need to bring my 1966 Mustang wheels to more events to showup a Pontiac! (I have added back the pin stripes that the car was delivered with since my last post some years ago on trainorders.) 

Seriously though, that Tempest would be fun to drive.  Anyone know what year the Tempest model is?

We're probably both off topic, but as long as I don't mention that country that begins with a "C", Bruce F. might not have my post deleted....

Probably a 1967 as the headlights are stacked. I had a 1967 GTO bought in 1968 and sold it in 1887 with over 200,000 miles on it and it was never overhauled except for timing chain.

Did anyone confuse the two customers driving the Pontiac Tempest with two "utes" from New York driving a Buick Skylark?
