Background Story of this 1966 Pontiac Tempest

Overview of 1966 Pontiac Tempest For Sale by Owner

In the mid-1960s, when Pontiac introduced the GTO nameplate, it revolutionized the concept of high-performance cars accessible to everyday people. Everyone aspired to experience the thrill of owning a nearly racecar-like vehicle right in their own driveway. This Pontiac Tempest wagon, originally a family car, exemplifies this trend. Through a skillful transformation it now exudes the distinctive Pontiac GTO charisma. The metamorphosis includes the installation of a robust 455ci V8 engine equipped with a tri-power setup, accompanied by a 5-speed manual transmission. This alteration has effectively turned what was once a simple grocery hauler into an exhilarating hot rod GTO tribute. Remarkably, with just 70,409 miles on the odometer, this classic muscle car, infused with nostalgia, is poised for its new owner's immediate enjoyment.

Exterior and Interior

This 1966 Pontiac Tempest Safari Wagon GTO boasts a clean white exterior, allowing the generous chrome accents on the body to shine. Notable chrome elements include the front and rear bumpers, side-exit tailpipes, and the hubcaps of the yellow-painted wheels. The car features various badges, including GTO Wagon, Hurst, and the iconic Pontiac shield. Additional eye-catching details include quad headlamps up front and an aftermarket rear spoiler. Stepping into the cabin of this 1966 Pontiac Tempest Safari Wagon GTO, you'll immediately appreciate its spaciousness. The seats are upholstered in what appears to be a gold-colored vinyl, providing comfortable seating for up to five passengers. The cabin is equipped with five lap belts for enhanced safety. Creature comforts include a push-button radio paired with a separate tape player, as well as a ventilation system. Notably, two aftermarket Bose speakers have been added to the rear of the car. The driver's grip finds a steering wheel with a gold rim, and a highly desirable hood-mounted tachometer complements the setup, providing insight into the RPM of the potent V8 engine under the hood as it winds up. Given its wagon design, the car offers ample space for luggage, making it a versatile option for memorable road trips.

Engine

Now, onto the truly captivating aspects. This 1966 Pontiac GTO Safari Wagon boasts a commanding 455ci V8 engine under its hood, unleashing a formidable 518 horsepower. Adding to the excitement, the power is harnessed through a manual transmission, offering you the pleasure of channeling all that energy to the rear wheels according to your preferences. While examining the exterior and interior badges and decals, it becomes apparent that this car was initially equipped with a factory four-speed transmission. However, it has been thoughtfully upgraded to a Hurst five-speed gearbox. Regardless of the transmission choice, exhilarating driving experiences are guaranteed with this exceptional vehicle.

The 1966 Pontiac Tempest GTO Tribute car is a remarkable piece of automotive history that pays homage to the legendary Pontiac GTO. In the mid-1960s, Pontiac was on a mission to create a high-performance muscle car that would capture the hearts of American car enthusiasts. The result was the original GTO, which debuted in 1964 and quickly became an icon of the era. The GTO Tribute, introduced in 1966, was essentially a Pontiac Tempest with various GTO-inspired enhancements, distinctive styling cues, and performance-oriented features. This allowed buyers to experience the thrill of a GTO without the premium price tag, making it a popular choice among muscle car enthusiasts. This unique blend of affordability and performance solidified the GTO Tribute's place in the annals of automotive history as a symbol of the muscle car era's heyday. Today, these cars are well sought after, and to announce that we have such a beautiful example on sale is an honor.

1965 Pontiac GTO

PENDING SALE
$72,997

Born from the desire to be free of corporate constraint, the Pontiac GTO is a lesson in defiance. It shows what happens when men figure out a way to rage against the corporate machine in a creative way. You see, General Motors had banned their auto divisions from competing in auto racing for some ridiculous reason. However, executives such as John Z. DeLorean, Russ Gee and Bill Collins knew that this was outrageous. They felt the desire to find a way to buck the rules, and they easily found it. Because why not give customers a turn-key racer that’s thinly veiled as a street car? After all, you can’t control how your customers use your car once they’ve paid the purchase price and driven off the lot, can you? Hence, the GTO was born, with a name inspired by a Ferrari legend. Today, we have a 1965 Pontiac GTO for sale from Evansville, Wisconson. This symbol of rebelliousness is available with under 100,000 miles on the clock, a 389 Tri-Power under the hood and a Muncie 4-speeder taking care of shifting. If you want it in your life, don’t waste any more time, talk to us!

2006 Pontiac Solstice

PENDING SALE
$16,900

Pontiac, founded in 1926 was responsible for many all-American heroes of the automotive scene. Names such as Firebird, GTO, Bonneville, Tempest and Fiero are still held in high regard today. Sadly, the Pontiac division was shut down by GM in 2010. In their later years, they continued to create an interesting car every now and then. The Solstice was one of them, a compact two-door convertible sports car that was made between 2006 and 2010. That’s what we have here, a 2006 Pontiac Solstice Roadster from San Antonio, Texas. It’s got a 2.4-liter Ecotec 4-cylinder, a convertible top, and is rear-wheel drive as you’d expect from any self-respecting sports car. With just over 35,000 miles on the odometer, this curio could be yours!

1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$54,999

Pontiac’s Firebird is an iconic car. It was made between 1967 and 2002 across four generations, and the sister car of Chevy’s Camaro. Notably, the second and third generations of Firebird had significant screen presences, in the shape of featuring prominently on Smokey and the Bandit (second generation), as well as Knight Rider (third generation). It’s no surprise, given that the second-generation’s muscular and pumped-up looks lent itself well to star alongside Burt Reynolds, while the third generation’s sleek computer-graphics esque design was perfect to be the car of the future – talking and all. Today, we’ve got a nice second-generation 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am for sale from The Villages, Florida. This machine has got the Oldsmobile 403ci V8 under the hood, and rolls on a set of aftermarket Snowflake wheels. We’re also informed that the interior has been reupholstered.

1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS

PENDING SALE
$109,999

Chevy’s answer to Ford’s pony car challenge, the Camaro came in 1967 and brought a sister along for the ride, in the shape of the Pontiac Firebird. This was a smart move by General Motors as it allowed them to sell two suitably varied models in the same segment but with much of the same underpinnings, engines and other components. The Firebird was axed in 2002 but the Camaro continued to be made until 2024. That makes it the second longest-running pony car in history. Today, we’ve got a nice first-generation 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS for sale in St. Cloud, Florida. This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS 396 is a show-stopping example of American muscle restored to concours-level detail. Verified by its X66 code and built at the Norwood, Ohio plant, this real-deal Super Sport coupe combines factory originality with subtle performance enhancements that elevate both its drivability and collectability. With its matching-numbers big-block, correct Turbo 400 transmission, and period-authentic Holley 4346 carburetor, this Camaro is the perfect blend of raw 1960s muscle and expert craftsmanship.

1967 Chevrolet Corvette

$89,999

Chevy’s second-generation Corvette was made from 1963 to 1967, but across that relatively short lifcycle, over 117,000 examples found homes. This highlights how popular the Corvette was back then, much like it is now. The second generation or C2 brought about many features that we know from later ‘Vettes, such as pop-up headlamps, the boat-tailed styling, and the exclusive use of V8s for the Corvette – the C1 did offer a six cylinder early in its lifecycle but that wasn’t deemed worthy for a top-tier sports car. Today, we’ve got a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe for sale from Shohola, Pennsylvania, and let us tell you it’s a catch. With a growling 327 under the hood, this is classic American car nirvana at its finest. Plus, given the great condition of the car, it’s a sure-fire appreciating asset if you continue to look after it. If you’re interested in getting your hands on this beauty, we’re waiting for your call or DM.

$20,000

Chevy’s third-generation Corvette of 1968 to 1982 was the best-seller in the entire range, in terms of generational numbers. Thanks to its super-long production run, over 542,000 were made, despite it carrying on through the dreaded Malaise Era. During these dark times for automotive enthusiasts, Chevy worked hard to maintain the Corvette as one of the fastest American cars around – of course that was a subjective term, but impressive, nonetheless. Hence, a C3 Corvette is a robust way to enter the world of classic American cars. Want to know more? We’ve got a 1977 Chevrolet Corvette for sale from Littleton, Colorado right here. It packs a 350ci L48 under the hood, paired with an automatic transmission to make it more convenient for those who never bothered to learn stick shift.
