No.
They were actually 49-51 Fords in the hot rod and custom car world.

I have been busy the last few day's but seeing all these replies, It shows all the wanna be's & has been's being super jealous of the real cars putting down real passes! Mark Yaca****um hasn't done anything in years and Billy who cares goes right along with him.
It wasn't hard to understand my post! Sorry, at the end of the day, NOBODY will remember you or care of about your combo's! Grow a set and build a real car!

You know, I have always enjoyed viewing your photos, until now. REMEMBER, it’s best to keep one’s mouth SHUT and be thought a fool than to OPEN it and remove all doubt ….WITH WARMEST REGARDS,…… MJ QUINN

Boy did this derail badly. Time to calm down and get along before it becomes yellowbullet.

Bob,
Since this post followed mine, I would like to say a couple of things. I was trying to be funny, not insulting to Mark. I was a teenager when he raced at Conn. Dragway and have only respect for his accomplishments, since then.
Doing more with less, is its own reward. To each their own.
Thanks, MJ

"wanna be's & has been's"


Well not so much in Yacavonne's case. We are talking about someone who been racing NHRA Stock and Super Stock and chasing points since around 1970, and fielded many combinations which have run considerably under the index in every case. And not only did he race the cars, he built the engines, transmissions, rear ends, headers, converters, paint, I will say he never did the upholstery though. So when a life long racer builds the car and the trailer to tow the car in his mid 70s, its going to be hard for me to disparage him, I can only hope I can do so well when I'am his age.

Years ago Yac was the subject of mine and a engine building friend of mine, I would bust his balls over the "dime rocket" builds, and to Mark's credit he didn't get all over me about it, but he did send me pictures of his Monte Carlo build, after studying the pictures I realized this was a well built car with a lot of thought put into it, I then realized how wrong I was! Since then Mark's built several trans for me, and I enjoy bouncing ideas off him.

So I'am curious since I've raced in Colorado's thin air for years and have alway had the fastest small tire (9 inch) NA production engined full weight Stocker style cars bar none in Colorado, a video for proof. I can't remember running into you and your Mustang? Can you post the performance of your Mustang so I can have a look, thanks.
