I found one in my area. Hoping to pick it up today or tomorrow. It needs some cleaning, but is intact. I will post some pictures when I get it.

I have a lot of work, but should be installing the engine soon.

1. Remove single master cylinder and install dual MC.
2. Bleed brakes. Easy when engine is out and hood off!!
3. Paint under hood.
4. BFH the tunnel for tranny.
5. Install engine/tranny.
6. check for correct geometry and install.
7. DRIVESHAFT!! I might have a line on a longer one from another Poncho.

More to come. I might just buy 5/16 female rod ends and a threaded 5/16 rod and make my own shifter assembly. We shall see.

Thanks for the help!!!
