EXTERIOR STYLING Pntiac styling, which is the cornerstone of the industry, gives individuality to each ’67 series while maintaining the distinctive and traditional Pon tiac appearance. The Tempest, Tempest Cus tom and Pontiac LeMans grilles are identified by vertical ribs alternately spaced to create a distinctive pattern.

The front nose shape flows back in to the hood and lower grille openings creating a wide, pow erful impression. Pontiac side styling features particular emphasis on long front fenders and full length side peak line and on some models is accented with a nor- row moulding. Gracefully curv ing belt and fenders give a sweeping rake to the rear quar ter profile. Lower body side and rear fender sculpturing is illu sively long and low. Four-door roof lines are styl ed similar to the two-door mod els whose roof lines appear to sweep continuously from the roof to the tip of the trunk.
