    57 Wagon Holiday Thrash

    Since I had two 3 day weekends back to back, I took the opportunity to get my wagon project under way. I bought the car about 5 years ago, and drove it around with the original 312 y-block until the blow by into the interior got too bad to tolerate ( cough cough ). I started putting together a .30 over 302 a couple years ago w/ a C4 auto, and here we are! I sold the Y-block and Ford-0-matic to a guy restoring a Ranchero, and now the small block is sitting in it's place....

    No monkeying around at all! Bought a kit from Butch's Cool Stuff that makes everything a bolt in. Makes it a lot easier.
