Gary's Bird prior to the rocker problem and then later the block problem.




Gary practices his lettering as Yblock Billy down from Maine, checks spelling?




E setup




Vic’s bird.




YBlock Billy’s from maine.




Yeah, I think we all liked this one, didn’t race, entered in show.




Another view.




Church Brothers.




Church Brothers, reverse angle.




Dennis Leeking Plumbing. This dial in may not impress, but with his reaction time and consistency, you better beware.




Wally Keirsten 56, a few notches on this ones belt.




Wally Keirsten’s 56, Nice engine compartment!




Close up of a tried and true setup




Going after a blown head gasket.




Johns done this before, unfortunately he’s finds out later he’ll have to do it again.




This sweet little wagon took home some of the dough!




YBlock dessert!, really just a defective adjuster screw in Gary’s engine.




Ted shows us all how it’s done.




You have to feed the guy that makes this all come together. Bob Martin enjoys some great grub.




ok!, how’s this for desert!”




Bob Martin’s Merc,with Dennis Leeking, YBlock billy and His brother discuss strategy, Lon Argent wheeled Bob’s Merc.



Back behind most of the other y’s in the pits, Jerry Christianson was stealthily operating AREA 51.




A few of the the guy’s jumped in to help put on some last minute stuff.




Lots of joking going on, you should a been there!




YBlockers from all over, still putting "Wyld Chyld" (my name for it!) together, hasn’t been thru tech, yet.




Hood scoop is off of a 6O’s F-700, modified by Jerry.




Brad gives me a lookover as I try to get a shot of the “valve” brake pedal




“What was I thinking?”




Ignition!




Royce Brechler checks the trans fluid. “hey, Jerry are those loose wires gonna be an issue?”




Jerry looks left then pulls out for tech

Dennis & Al.  Thanks for sharing the pics.  Great shots.

 

On a similar note, Jim has picked up the pics I had here that were taken by myself, Charlie, Tony, Bob, Lon, and others.  He’s working on a new gallery to put these in.
