Spring is in the air. I take my 55 Pontiac 4 speed for a ride and bang some gears on the highway. This car was dragged in 1968 by a friend of mine, and was at several car shows in the late 60s.

Brings back some great memories as the glove box popped open it reminded me of my own. I had ford three seven threes in back with a floor shifter on the original three speed which had some crazy linkage (you have to see to believe) so went to four speed soon, my column was out of a sixty Bonneville that had the four on floor and lived on in my fifty five. I cut in a fifty six chevy bar grill, and fifty four chevy taillights, 389 pony engine that used to be where the trans came from. My dash box popped open everytime I ran through the gears and finally wired it shut but it would still break loose so its a trait or you have my old one. I did make all my door panels from stuff out of the junk yard. Seat covers from JC Whitney catalog was my go to and then do better out of the wrecking yard myself. I did get one electric window in and stopped there as it was a committed to once started and it was handy in some ways. I really liked that car as it was my beat on car that just took a beating and kept on ticking. It went away while I was in nam. Mine wasn't so old when I started with it... I had two and made a nice one out of two then built the spare as I said. I enjoyed

It has an article about a 1935 Hudson Terraplane De Luxe Six . It is in very much original condition . You can sure see the changes that were made for 1936 . It's a good ...at your fingertips way to reference what a difference a year can make for your cousin .The article also says that Robert Johnson recorded "Terraplane Blues" in 1936 .

i know the feeling. I have always hated changeing gears. My opinion was that if god wanted me to change gears we wouldn't have automatics. Then for the heck of it but mainly because of high gas prices, when i semi retired to Jamaica I bought an old 1993 Suzuki Swift GTI five speed in excellent condition. For those who have never been to Jamaica lets just say that EVERYBODY is a NASCAR driver and there are no straight roads. I would find a reason to bang through those five gears every day. The roads are a whole different league of fun. There are off camber S turns, there are steep hills with corners like you would not believe and the roads are just wide enough for two cars to sort of get by. Driving an over powered undersized car is the most fun you will ever have with your clothes on.

It has a 4:10 gear and does 3200rpm on the highway. Love the sound also.

Speed @ what RPM and gear ratio final drive? 450 crank HP Net or Gross? I cam see 400 maybe, 450 NA seems like it'd be stretching what 5.3 litres NA is capable of, especially with Iron heads, double hump heads I'm guessing with a high lift short duration mechanical cam? Sounds awesome and fun, nothing like a 4 speed, especially in something as cool as a '55 Poncho Chieftain instead of a '55 210, Nomad, or Bel Air.. those belly button cars you see at every show ! Poncho's Rule!

You sure that's an M-22 transmission? I didn't hear the distictive whine of the transmission in first, second and third gears. I've own 2 cars with M-22's and I love the sound. I have a Super T-10 four speed behind the 454 in my '50 Chevy. All but one of my hot rods were built with four speeds.

@@corypenny2078 There's no problem. I was just trying to hear the whine of the transmission and didn't hear it. Thought it might have been because the engine is pretty loud too. Forgot to mention in my original comment that I thought your car was pretty cool. I build most of my cars with big blocks in them but the first engine I ever built was a 327 out of a '64 Impala. I put it in a '50 Chevy Sedan Delivery when I was 16 years old.
