All this Y block talk got me off my ass to go go up and pick up and store a 292 that I had started a deal on a couple years ago.
A friend from another forum was taking it out of a truck to install a newer engine.
We made a deal that when he got it out I would come up and pick it up. We both understood we were not in a hurry.
Took him about a year to get to it and took me about a year to get the time/initiative to go get it (it was half way up the state).
I went and picked it up and got to meet another Ford lover face to face. Nice guy.
I hauled it the rest of the way up to my ranch in NorCal and put it on a pallet under a tarp.
Could not believe how complete it is. It has every piece with it to run and looks to be in great shape.
I'm thinking of a 30s or 40s truck for it.
So the parts collecting starts again.
I wonder if I have enough projects yet.
