I was powered by 292 cu in.I was at a the Ford dealership looking at cars when a 18wheeler car carrier pulled up with a load of new cars. I noticed the ‘Stang on the top. I asked the salesman if the car was for sale. He left and came back in 10 minutes and said “Yes, It was available.” Me: “Sold!”
When I drove it away the next day speedo read 6 miles.
Two weeks later new bride, Mrs TaMoDee, and I went on our honey moon!
Those old Y-Blocks were good motors. We had a dump truck with a 312 in it. It had a Dayton 2-speed rear end, and I twisted one of those 1-5/16" axles off with it once.

64 mustang V8’s were powered by small block 260’s. The 292 was the ‘Thunderbird’ engine in the 50’s but in the 60’s was mainly used in trucks.
