Damn, I feel pretty good, 16/17. Not bad for a not so old timer! Got the Ford Y block wrong.

If it wasn't multiple guess, I wonder how well us "experts" would do. Most of them I got right were thru the process of elimination. I didn't know what they were, but I could pretty much tell what they weren't.

17/17 on the first game, and 18/19 on the second (missed the Studebaker; thought it was a Y-block).

I recall the first time I saw a Polyspherical Plymouth motor in a street-rod at a cruise-night back in the 80's; at that time, I thought I had seen everything, but those multiple-scallops threw me back then.

16 out of 17; missed the last question (Pontiac or Chevy). My gut told me Chevy but, I went with Pontiac for some reason.
