Welcome to VGT!

In future posts you'll need to make sure your thumbnail and your map URL are from the same source. In this case you submitted a non map thumbnail with a Google Maps URL I'll fix this one but it will be the only freebie you get. :)

Please take a few minutes to read the FAQ and the Tutorials Forum.

Thanks

"It is a 1962 Tempest, not a Lemans.. "
You are correct. Further research revealed that in 1962 the Tempest had an option package called LeMans as stated in the review at http://www.cargurus.com/Cars/Overview-c7642-1962-Le-Mans.html
Maybe this one has a LeMans package or maybe not, but it is definitely a 1962 Tempest.
