1966 Pontiac Tempest Custom Hardtop Coupe 6-Speed

This 1966 Pontiac Tempest Custom Hardtop Coupe is a show-stopping modern restomod, finished in a striking BMW metallic blue and mounted on a purpose-built Art Morrison GT Sport chassis. Power comes from a 6.2-liter LS3 V8 producing 439 horsepower and 394 lb-ft of torque, paired with a Tremec six-speed manual transmission, Holley EFI, and long-tube headers feeding MagnaFlow mufflers for an exhilarating exhaust note.

The chassis features fully adjustable coilovers, a triangulated four-link rear suspension with a 9″ Yukon limited-slip differential, Wilwood six-piston front and four-piston rear disc brakes, power rack-and-pinion steering, and polyurethane bushings—combining classic styling with modern handling and stopping power. Staggered 19″ American Racing wheels wear Toyo Proxes 4 Plus tires, completing the aggressive stance.

Inside, the cabin is outfitted with gray leather front buckets and rear bench, a custom center console and dashboard, Lokar pedals, Hurst shifter, Dakota Digital instrumentation, and an Alpine/CD stereo linked to high-end JL Audio and Hertz components. Comfort features include air conditioning and power windows, while subtle GTO-inspired touches—hood scoop, polished rocker panels, Billet Specialties handles, and Dakota Digital taillights—give the car a timeless muscle-car look.

With only ~600 miles on the build and complete records, this Pontiac Tempest Custom offers a perfect blend of classic 1960s style, modern performance, and turnkey reliability. It’s a rare opportunity for enthusiasts seeking a high-powered, precision-built American muscle car ready for both cruise nights and spirited drives.
