Welcome to the site Larry, spent some time with Mike down at the ODDR in Panama City this weekend. We had a great time, hope you can make it down south with the car someday.

Thanks John, Has 471 heads on it. Would have liked to had a set of yours but motor was build before the were available. Don't think I will have it out to race this year again, I'll work the bugs out over the winter and get it ready for next year. Will try to post some interior photos later. Larry

I've always been a fan of gassers and a 56 gasser with a Y Block is great. Good Job!!!

Thanks Tom, I still have a lot of little thing I want to do to the car. Want to work out the bugs and have it ready to race next year. Although I built the motor to race specs the car was built for my enjoyment so I'm going to just make easy passes on it. I've always thought the value of a car is not what you can sell it for, but how many new friends you can make by having it. And I've made a lot of new Y-Block Friends because of the car !!! Larry
