Welcome
Welcome to the Hamb. Its good to see there is another Poncho fan in WI.
I don't suppose you would have any pics of how the linkage is hooked up.
I'm putting a 55' Pontiac hydramatic tranny in my 41' Poncho. Can anybody recommend a floor shifter that will work with it?
Can they be used on radials?
Are you running a hood. If so I say use the 289, won't see it anyway. A ford in a ford is cool either way.
I just found a site that shows the color changes by year. I'll post it in case anybody else is interested....
When did pontiac switch from the green to the light blue paint on their engines?

You could start by removing that shelf above the bumper.
Wow, it's funny how things work out. I bet the guy you bought it from was surprised to see you again.

I've been thinking about it and I think I'm going to use the hydro.
Thanks, I'd really appreciate that.
Unfortunately, both cars are in storage at my Dad's place right now. I'll see if I can get those measurements this weekend and I'll pm you....
Would the 41' Pontiac 3-speed bolt up to the 55' Pontiac V-8?
Actually, my next question to post was going to be what transmissions will fit this motor. I'd like to go with a turbo 350 rather than have the...
I'm looking to do a swap of a 55 Pontiac 287 stratostreak motor into my 41 Pontiac. Has anyone done this type of swap? What motor mounts to use...
So what are you asking for the T?

I heard that Irish Spring soap will keep them away and have actually had pretty good luck with it. I shaved a bar up with a potato peeler and put...
Welcome aboard, so what extras do you got?
