Yeah Like Amy said It probably was a mixture of Ford an GM parts. Some of those old street rods had parts from whatever they could get there hands on. Besides 350 chevy motors are pretty common and easy to get parts for. Nice pics by the way

Oh yeah - it had a SBC engine, and I'm aware that it is a common swap for the old rods/roadsters. In fact, I swapped a SBC engine/Powerglide into my '52 Ford PU back in the 70s. Up until this year the theme has strictly embraced 'classic chevy' so it was just a bit strange seeing a car there that didn't qualify as one.
