Same here ;_; It sat for nearly 15 years outside parked on a car trailer. Needless to say the entire frame and floors are swiss cheese :( I parted it out, made about a grand. Pic related, my POS camaro in its final resting place :(

It's just a base model. Originally came with a 3.8 Buick V6 but now it has a Chevy 4.3 V6. I know most people would disagree with me putting a Chevy motor in a Poncho (let alone a V6), but it has awesome torque and mileage, so I don't really care.

ouch, mine sat in a field in GA for about 10, got it running smoked like a bitch, rebuilt top end of the motor and was fine. took out the interior to find out it almost didnt have a floor, just flat sheet metal over the holes

Haha yeah, I'm planning on getting a V8 when I start making money. I'll probably end up going with a tried and true Chevy 350 just because there's so many of them around here.

Mine had a 267 small block V8. Even though the fuel lines were completely rotten, we connected a new battery and poured a little gas down the carb and it fired on the first try lol. I wish I could have had that camaro. My dad had it since I was 3 or 4, and that was gonna be our project car. LOL not anymore :( We ended up selling the wheel wells and fenders as well. Pic related, herrafrush surface rust.

a dime a dozen anywhere and parts for them are cheap also easy to build. any part from any chevy small block will interchange with any other small block minus cranks for 283's/327's, and pistons

When i got my 75 GMC truck, some prick blew the stock 400 and put a 267 in it...needless to say that engine went to scrap quickly and a good old 350 took its place.

Good stuff. Got to love the older vehicles. So much more fun imo.
