I'm old....I remember it all!Wow, these are great photos. 120" wheelbase, steel frame, cast iron Poncho motor.....How many remember calling the Pontiac engine a Poncho? How many remember the A/FX class, 1962, Pontiac Tempest (the "compact" car) with a 421" Pontiac big block? I think A/FX could be called the ancestor of F/C. Below is a link to what the 62 looked like.
