Yeah, the old poncho had its share of oneness with nature, and was most likely paddock bashed till it was dead and jumped a few dams back in the day. I skull dragged it from the north west of the state so rust wise, it wasnt as bad as it looked, but I think if I didn't get it, the scrap man would have and it would most likely be a about 27 Cheap Chinese Mini bikes buy now!!!

Ah cool, a local. Yeah my exhaust guy is a legend, I told him what I wanted and thats how it turned out...sweet.
Yeah, the Harley is Cleared.
Thanks Hewey. Whats your ride? Ill keep an eye out.

My ride's an XY wagon, you prob wont see it - its kinda hibernating in the garage currently! You'll find mudflap on here is from Richmond too. Who's your exhaust guy? Need some new pipes on my daily, and down the track want to a dual set up for the XY.

I love it when people rescue old cars from the brink! especially when most people would consider them too far gone.
Excellent!

Paul, The only reason I know is I have a '46 ornament mounted on a block of timber at home. This must be the first '46 poncho i've seen on the road!!! Great build and your pick-up looks the goods too.
Cheers The Zed....................

Thanks Man

I wonder if its the one of my Car...

Yeah, I know of one other in Vic but thats far from road worthy. I love to know of others, and some history.

Hey Paul. Awesome vid on the Poncho, and i've said it before and i'll say it again...... killer ute

Cheers

Here's a couple of my latest ride. My 1950 Oldsmobile Rocket 88, which has always been one of my dream cars.
It has been set up Gasser style and did run 15's. I bought it less running gear.
Its called the "Rocketeer" Which is currently on the rear quarters in vinyl but soon to be peeled off and painted up the side. Its gonna stay a gasser but im gonna stick rego on it so we can cruize the streets Im loading more pic's too so Stay tuned!

Hey yeah, it featured in Cruzin magazine issue 16 on the front cover, I don't have a copy so if you have one you want to part with........................

Heres some more, the last one is photoshop'd.

Awesome car Paul. Always loved the Olds...... and anything from the early 50s

Cheers

Mick
