This is a low mile 65 tempest (33000) A friend of mine had this car for years, he wanted to make it a GTO convert but I talked him into keeping it a tempest as you don't see them, the outer body was very nice, there was some rust spots in the trunk floor so he replaced the pan at the original seems, it was taken off the frame and the frame was blasted and repainted, he was planning on driving this car so he left no stones unturned,the original 326 was pulled and he rebuilt a 67 WS GTO 400 with the 670 heads, it is ,030 over with the 068 cam, it runs very nice, the original engine comes with the car, it has a new top, new tires, all of the brakes, and suspension are fresh, the interior is very nice original with the exception of the carpet, this is a very nice car for the money I have more pictures, asking 24,500 obro, 616-262-6219

More likely it's a Super Turbine 300, Pontiacs and other GM's version of a two speed trans. The only similarity to a Glide is that it has two forward speeds.
