By MoonShadow - 16 Years Ago The Beach Boys famous cover car. I never relised it was a Y-Block until now! WOW. Chuck http://thehotrodsofdearborn.com/cattalo.html Wait a minute, those exhaust pipes look wrong. What is that motor? By charliemccraney - 16 Years Ago the valve covers make me think Olds rocket. The exhaust looks like Cadillac. My bet is an Olds. By paul2748 - 16 Years Ago Those are not TBird valve covers. Finned - yes. By aussiebill - 16 Years Ago Chuck, yes its an Olds, i dont think they wanted too much uncontrollable Y block horsepower for that car! You can allways tell  the olds by the 2 mounting studs spacing  being closer to the center of the valve cover compared to the y block being closer to the ends. Maybe we should donate a y block for the restoration, its not too late!! regards aussiebill. By RB - 16 Years Ago Chuck, Hope you got Rich to come to Expo next year... we could use some more Lincolns. What brand is your trailer... sure is a good looking unit! By MoonShadow - 16 Years Ago Its a Roadmaster. They had some good closeout sales on 2008 models. I was looking at those entry level trailers out of Georgia but with V-nose and cabinets they were over $6000. This one was on sale in PA for $7000. My wife said I couldn't pass it up. Tows great too.
