Tempests are cool, low buck GTOs. I had a 66 with the OHC-6 and a 1 bbl. Still my Favorite body style for a Pontaic mid-size.

I hate clones ....... and people that sell clones as the "real" deal piss me off
Mine is a Tempest custom that had the 326 in it, I was looking specifically for a Custom and kept finding Lemans and GTO's or clones that poeple wanted real GTO prices for.

I have a customer that was taken when he bought a 67 Shelby GT500 as authentic. The seller had even got his glove box lid signed by old Carol himself. When he brought it to me the first time to show off and change all the fluids, tune, etc, I researched the VIN. He was taken for over a 100K!!! The car started it's life as a 67 radio and heater delete Mustang with a 289.
My buddy/customer is loaded so he wasn't poor from the deal and he took the guy to court. The seller was awarded with 2 years in the stone motel for mail fraud(it was advertised in a national publication) and interstate grand theft(or something like that) and had to pay restitution. If he can't pay the restitution, he goes back to the pokey for another 3 years.
I still blame my buddy for being such a moron buying an investment like that and not doing his homework. ALL the domestic "specialty" cars have indicators in their VIN's to what they are. GTO's, 442's, Shelby's, etc all have "special" VIN's. You should know your shit if you're going to buy one of those cars.
Personally, I like clones. You get all the features of the real deal, without the cost(unless you don't do your homework).
