OK! I was searching for "Billy" or "Y Block Billy"

Here you go...looks like a solid grab to me! Always love seeing big window 57-60's around...that y-block looks like it just came off a stand...is it an earlier engine? Just noticed the 94 carb, thought those stopped in '56...looks like you scored a nice tailgate too! I bought a NOS gate for waaaaay too much before I found out that Carpenter makes perfect repops

Todd,

That Y is in my 57, you may see in one photo it sitting in the background, the 58 has the 223 and for some reason the y setup in the 57 is factory with the loadomatic and 3 bolt carb. They changed the distributors, manifolds and carbs to the later style on the cars but for trucks the cahnge came later, probably for 58 because my 58 F500 has the later style.

Thanks for inserting the photos for me Todd.

Now I am going to try loading one to the site on my laptop instead of my home PC. In this photo you will see the front of the 58 (Black) and then the 57 (Blue & White)in the background if it works.

Works fine from here, Whats happening with my home PC?
