1961 poncho back together
Permalink  


Well after hours and hours this winter, the colour change looks good and I can say 

that I done it and happy with the outcome, I call it a 2 foot paint job lol. All that is left to do is the trans which I hope to get done this summer. In the meantime I hope I run into somebody at a car show that has done this swap on a 261 so I can see first   hand how the 200R4 works. Sent a few photos, enjoy.

PS-- I hope some one with a white 427 lol might enlarge these, Thanks Brent

That is looking really sweet! You do nice work! Looking forward to hearing how the 200R4 works out. I suspect it'll be a terrific match to that 6 and you'll wonder how anybody ever lived with a powerglide!

Brent, your 61 looks great. I was looking at your profile, is this the car you had in high school or one like it?

Yes Brendan it is identical to my first car except I had the 283 instead of the 261 engine. I looked for years to find one, and thanks to Todd he happend to see the car in kijiji Montreal and e-mailed me about it and the funny part I was not aware of the canadian poncho site. Funny things happen and this goes to show it. Thanks Brent
