Title: Newbie
Post by: Bill in Halls on 2016-09-23 16:28
Hey, I just got registered. Are all the posts here years old, or am I not doing this right. I have two Fairlane 500's here in East Tennessee, a two-door hardtop and a Town Sedan. Don't you just love the way those Y-Blocks sound?

Welcome to the forum.  I don't know where you were looking, but this is a very active place to find out anything related to our beloved 57s.  Pictures are always welcome and encouraged.

I agree about the Ys...The best sounding engines in the world are the Y and the FE.  Nothing like them.  Welcome to the group.

    Welcome to the site.   The people that you meet here are very helpful and serious about 57 Fords.
If you have questions, just ask and you will find that someone here has been there and done that.
    Yes there is nothing like the sound of a Y block.  I don't have a radio in mine because I would rather hear the engine.   Jay in Mass.

Welcome aboard Bill.  Best forum on the net.  Good guys, smart guys, and all willing to share info.  None are judgmental.

Welcome aboard. Like me, you will find the people on here to be the most helpful and friendly bunch you could ever ask to be associated with. Even though I am way down here in New Zealand, nothing is too much trouble to help another '57 fan.
But we live for photos.

Welcome, I am with you on the sound of a good ol' Y-Block. I hear people that put down these old engines but I have had nothing but amazing service out of mine. Glad to have you on board. What area of the country are you in?

Particularly since he hasn't reposted since his original post, I'm wondering if he does have an issue with his computer...sounded kinda twilight-zone with the question about all the posts being years old. Maybe he'll post something else in a few years, lol.
welcome, btw.
