    The truck looks like a great project. I love it. Is the Y-block bolted to the original 3 speed? Gonna run the y-block?

    Great project!
    My 34 was originally from Cali.
    Glad to hear your keeping the fenders on. Unless you chop the **** out of them, I dont feel they look good without fenders.
    Heres mine. Bob your bed. It needs it.. :)

    I am a huge Y block fan, and have ran them in a lot of cars. They are great engines, but honestly if you want a low-buck high performance they are not the one. Kinnda like flatheads, look and sound cool, but speed parts are spendy.

    If the Y-block installed right, go with it. It looks great in there. While we're on the subject, does Bobbleed's truck have a caddy?

    Great trucks........had a 34 back in the late 70's/early 80's.

    I think Chris should paint his with white house paint & then all 4 will look like they came from the same milk farm.

    Keep the 312 - 3 spd.

    Graet projects.

  26. Excellent choice for a great project. I'm a chevy guy and I agree with the consenus, go w/ the 312. I happen to want to keep the fenders on my '39, although some of my buddies say "nah". It will be fenderless for a while, until I can build a decent set fpr it. Good deal, sawbuck.

    close but no....besides, mine will be fenderless anyways. BUT, if I had the fenders for it, they would probably go on, but then again, nothing beats a shorty box lil pick 'em up highboy with a large engine!
