Projects New here, just bought a Pontiac

I have been lurking for a while, but now have a reason to post.

 

wow looks rock solid welcome to the hamb

Whats the plan for it?

 

whats your plan?

 

Have fun. Welcome

 

I love that Poncho man.

 

Welcome! Good body style...looking forward to seeing the progress.

 

Well, first off it totally clashes with your name....

Slim

 

plan on getting it going and rolling it as is for a while, then dropping it.

and as for clashes with my name, im sure youll enjoy my others



My bike made it in the Wizz

 

Welcome,

I own a 52 pontiac hardtop, just finished a post on a brake upgrade I've been working on.

s.

 

Welcome aboard - great to have another poncho to share ideas with !!

Enjoy !!!

 

If you do a search, there's starting to be alot of Pontiac stuff on this board. And to think, when I first got mine... no one around me had Pontiac's. Now they all want em!

 

Welcome aboard!! Very cool tin Indian, cool visor, that has the coolest stock trim . I love the grille, tailights, fab. trim on hood and deck, I think that painted hood trim on leading edge is same as Chevy should be easy to find a shiny one. Love the bug, notchback, and scooter! Good luck with the new project.~Sololobo~

 

maybe you should go aircooled rear engine.
Welcome, I have a couple old Pontiacs myself. that one sure looks like a good start, they really look gooood chopped if you do it right (though it ain't ez).

 

i saw the one chopped buildup when i searched, really awesome metalwork!!

GM ever do any flathead V8s in this era?

 

No V8s, just 6 cil. flatheads

 

Nice grab,looks very solid. 2 doors are getting tougher and tougher to find anymore and many are settling for the 4 doors,looks like you did real good.

 

What about Cadillac Flathead weren't they produced into the late 40's, I think 1948. Then it was all OHV from then on.

s.

 

no 4 doors for me! well unless it is a lincoln of the early 60s era, but ive given up on getting a decent one for under 4k.

i saw the caddy 8s, just wasnt sure about plane ol chevys. I just likes the looks of em

 

Welcome aboard Jim, I too started off with VW's. Love the Notch! Good luck.

 

welcome. what's your plans for it?

 

solid gasser material, nose in the air.

 

looks good and solid,have fun with it later dude

 

i started with a 72 Dart Swinger, loved that car, and now and forever with the dubz.
have a look

Hmm i respect the gassers, really not my look, although a 55ish nomad gasser....hmmm

 

new pics



Seat seems to be newly recovered

 

I say sell the notchbug and put all the money in the Pontiac.

 

Jim, Welcome to the world of "heavy metal". Poncho looks good.

 

Sell the notch? you must be C-razy!
alittle photoshop.....

 

What year is that thing again? I'm having trouble getting used to the way the rear quarter's meet the tailights on that one. I might just be to used to the look of mine. Might it be a Canadian vs. U.S difference?

 

Another Poncho guy, welcome.

 

Put an Olds. or Caddy in that Indian , keep working on it and show us your progress.
