Default WOW! The Find of a Lifetime! 1963 SD 421 Tempest!

WOW! Check out this auction! The owner just thought he had just an old '63 Tempest Drag car but it turns out to be the missing Stan Long Pontiac-sponsored factory built Super Duty 421 car. This car is 1-of-6 and only one other is accounted for. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...67#description

Great find !! I hope you have the car under 24 hour guard with dogs and shotguns. This thing is so valuable I'm afraid someone might try to steal it....more

A: No, I BELIEVE IT WAS ONE OWNER UNTIL HE PASSED AWAY LAST YEAR. IT WAS AQUIRED BY CURRENT OWNER BY WAY OF YEARS OF STORAGE BILL. THANKS

Sounds like the Leno Doosie,,talk about a blind squirrel finding acorn!

The aluminum front end has been replaced by a steel nose but the ORIGINAL aluminum front nose from this very car is still in the hands of an enthusiast. I hope they can be reunited. Check out the cool headers that were found in the trunk! I think it shows something like 3XXXX original miles. The freakin' tow bar is still hooked up to the front of the car!
