It's a Roller! I rolled it outside so I could take it apart and and it in the sunlight.

Finished welding up the two crossmember and prettied up the rear 2x2.

Then I went ahead and boxed the frame. It was really simple with the precut pieces. I have a lot of welding to do.

Nice day today! Not nearly as hot as it has been the last week! Finally felt like working on something outside.
Pulled the sedan up to the shop and removed the front clip. Just a few bolts more and I can pull the engine out and clean it up. I did try starting it and it fires and it tried to run dumping gas down the carb.
389 Poncho Power!

Lotsa fun to have in one of those babies.
A set of 4x or 6x heads and a not so big cam gives you a little over 400 horse.
 
Pressure washed the Poncho 389. One year only 389 with reverse flow cooling. One year only heads, water pump, and intake manifold.

Much more interesting to see the Pontiac in this. It's so easy to get into the belly button rut. I am up to four of them now.
 
Brought the body and bed up to the shop.

Needs a bit of work, but you can handle it.

Got a rough one myself to start on this winter.
