Tempest Manuals

The Tempest is Pontiac’s compact car introduced for the 1961 model year, later the basis of the LeMans and GTO. The library holds Tempest manuals for 1961 through 1970: chassis and body shop manuals, heating and air conditioning manuals, an owner’s manual and a chassis service manual covering the Tempest alongside other Pontiac lines.

Manuals here include the 1961 Pontiac Tempest Chassis and Body Shop Manual and the 1962 Pontiac Tempest Shop Manual, which cover the four-cylinder and V-8 cars with the rear transaxle. The 1962 and 1963 Pontiac and Tempest Body Service Manuals help with sheet metal, glass and trim, and the 1963 Tempest Chassis Shop Manual covers Tempest and Le Mans. Restorers and owners of early Tempests and the later GTO-era cars can use these.
