"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.

Even though I found another site that qualified, I have to take exception to this one being disqualified. You are looking for launcher sites, and it violates a rule.The Nike missile site category does note specify launcher sites, and Note 6 is not part of the category listing.
