Freeport, Maine

I have up for consideration what I would call a really great opportunity for someone who would like to finish off a highly sought after A body Pontiac tribute muscle car with many of the hard to find components already collected and ready to be transformed into what I consider one of the coolest muscle car of the 60's. This 1965 Tempest convertible has the YN code 326 - 250hp engine complete with the factory 2bbl and the Super Turbine 300 automatic transmission. The floors are solid and have not been or do not need to be replaced in any fashion nor do the rockers or the trunk pan. This was an original Texas vehicle with a super clean frame as well. Rust work will not be the issue. The car runs and drives and has brakes but I would not consider this car road worthy and safe to drive in its present condition. The convertible top is a manual type which I like since it only takes one person to bring it up or down anyway. The car has had a recent enamel paint job in Regimental Red but its an amateur paint job at best. There is one small dent on the top of the right front fender which was done today at my disgrace but everything else on the car is nice and straight....no rust holes of any kind or bubbles. This is a great donor car for a 65 Goat. Now for the GTO stuff.. The car has an original GTO grab bar installed, new bucket seats with new correct vinyl both front and back, new correct assembled door panels for front and back (not installed), new carpet, original metal type dash inserts, Ralley I type wheels, All new in the box GTO emblems for front fenders and rear quarters (not installed), New factory correct Harrison radiator in the box (not installed) New chrome arm rests for both doors, (not installed) and much more.... Now the meat and potatoes... The car comes with a 1965 421 (block # 9778791) dated H274. This motor was a running motor 2 years ago when it was taken out of a believe it or not a 71 Chevelle convertible. The heads have a casting number on them of 76. The right head # 9778776 with a date 1 5 4. The left head # 9778776 with a date 1 3 4. This motor comes with all of the factory pulleys, brackets for power steering pump, alternator and everything for all of the belts to ride on complete. Even the starter is still in it. I have a set of mint factory GTO manifolds complete with the heat riser with the correct numbers for the year. This all sets in front of a massive TH 400 auto which they didn't have for Goats in 65 but necessary once you read on to the next feature. The final piece that makes this package worth all the money is a beautiful professionally reconditioned 1965 Tri-Power set up in a bolt on fashion ready to be installed with no compromise to quality by an expert carburetor enthusiast including a brand new NOS center carb (1965) which has never had gasoline run through it with the front and rear carbs (1964) having been brought to as new like new condition. The jets have been dialed to Bob Cat specifications to fully compliment the awesome power of very rare 421 power plant. Call with questions.........
