That engine was under the hood of a 56.. Didn't take a shot of the truck cause it was a little too much of the gaudy street rod type for my tastes..

And Finally our very own 46yblock's Pick-up..

Sorry I missed you, mike, you weren't at your truck the 3 or 4 times i came by it (I was Drooling on your Mummert intake, but don't worry, I wiped it off)

woops... Forgot a couple..

The black one is owned by a guy i know.. He traded someone a beat-up old 4X4 chevy straight across for that exactly as it is.. don't know what under the hood of the orange one but it sure looks good..

Dustin, sorry I missed you!  I saw more Y-block powered vehicles today than any show in the last 4 or 5 years.  There was a cool black and blue '57 wagon that retained its 292, and a very nice 3 deuce 272 powered '55 effie, just two that come to mind.

I posted this result over on FTE too.  MPG for the 150 mile round trip was 19.3!

Mike, located in the Siskiyou mountains, Southern, OR 292 powered 1946 Ford 1/2 ton, '62 Mercury Meteor, '55 Country Squire (parting out), '64 Falcon, '54 Ford 600 tractor.

19.3? even going over the passes? wow that's pretty good.. This one had nothing to do with a Y but i sure geeked out over it..

that's a crankshaft mounted blower.. How cool is that? (that handsome feller with his head under the hood is me dear ol' dad)

That one I gave a vote for best in its class .  It was a neat/cool show.  Nice drive, great people and cars, FREE registration, and I won a raffle prize that wasnt a Toyota Ball cap (another show).
