Survivor Classic Car Services Chicago is proud to present this clean 1962 Pontiac Tempest LeMans. Under the hood is the uncommon 195 cubic inch "Trophy 4" 4-cylinder engine. This engine was designed by essentially removing one cylinder bank from the Pontiac 389, making this 4-banger displace a healthy 3.2l. that compares with most modern V6 engines! Due to the larger displacement for its cylinder count, it is plenty torque and moved the Tempest surprisingly well!
Power is sent to the rear wheels and easily get the Tempest up to speed. This Tempest has had some restoration work in its past, including new weatherstripping, fresh paint, and the engine was gone through to make sure it is running in top shape. The engine starts up easily and idles smooth. While putting around town you would be hard pressed to believe that it is only a 4 cylinder. The 2-speed transmission shifts smoothly from gear to gear. The body is solid and looks to be all or mostly all original metal. This Tempest would make for a great Sunday cruiser. Popping the hood at your local cruise night will get a lot of confused onlookers wondering where the other cylinder head is!
