Charlie came to the machine shop where I&#8217;ve been working since 1985 and wanted some parts cleaned.\u00a0 I noticed that the parts were for a &#8217;50s F-100 and he also had some Y-Block parts.\u00a0 We got to talking and he told me that he had a dream of setting a land speed record and was going to do it with this old pickup he had for 20 years. Turns out Charlie, like me, has had a love affair with &#8220;Fridge Cab&#8221; Fords since high school too&#8230; although he got into them while they were still in production. Charlie is 67 this year.\u00a0 We became fast friends and I volunteered my engine building services to help him reach his goal.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"highslide\" onclick=\"return vz.expand(this)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Speed-Week-2010-503.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[11944]\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11951\" style=\"margin: 4px; border: black 2px solid;\" title=\"Speed Week 2010 Y Block Fridge Cab race truck\" src=\"http:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Speed-Week-2010-503.jpg\" alt=\"Speed Week 2010, Y Block, Fridge Cab\" width=\"575\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Speed-Week-2010-503.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Speed-Week-2010-503-150x99.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Speed-Week-2010-503-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Speed-Week-2010-503-400x265.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Charlie made his first appearance on the salt in 2007 and did not have a very good showing. That same year, he made his &#8220;Rookie&#8221; run at El Mirage without much success but anything worthwhile isn&#8217;t easy.\u00a0 Over the winter of 2007-2008 we did some tuning to the engine and some changes to the drivetrain like a new gear ratio in the rear and a borrowed Toploader four speed cause the T-10 tranny that he had had too wide a gap between 3rd and 4th for the little 258&#8243; Y to pull in top gear and accelerate. Charlie was ready for a great season.\u00a0 The first meet at El Mirage in May 2008 was not much more successful than the first year but it was an improvement. Then in June, Charlie had his first score with a 118+ mph run on a 115 mph record.\u00a0 With that he was ready for the Bonneville Salt Flats again.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"highslide\" onclick=\"return vz.expand(this)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Speed-Week-2010-501.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[11944]\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11956\" style=\"margin: 4px; border: black 2px solid;\" title=\"Speed Week 2010 Making a Rookie Pass at Bonneville\" src=\"http:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Speed-Week-2010-501.jpg\" alt=\"Speed Week 2010, Making a Rookie Pass, Bonneville, Y Block\" width=\"575\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Speed-Week-2010-501.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Speed-Week-2010-501-150x99.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Speed-Week-2010-501-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Speed-Week-2010-501-400x265.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>At Speed Week 2008 Charlie made a qualifying run of 124.6 mph and with a back up run the next day he had another record, this time on salt, to the speed of 122mph and change.<\/p>\n<p>After Speed Week, he went on a cross country tour stopping at car shows along the way and the Y-Block Shootout in Columbus, OH on Labor Day.\u00a0 Next he went to New York and then down to Maxton to pick up another E\/PP record with the ECTA.\u00a0 On the way back just for good measure the truck picked up another award as one of the top ten for Classic Trucks Magazine.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"highslide\" onclick=\"return vz.expand(this)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Speed-Week-2010-504.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[11944]\"><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11952\" style=\"margin: 4px; border: black 2px solid;\" title=\"Speed Week 2010 Ford Y Block powered pickup\" src=\"http:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Speed-Week-2010-504.jpg\" alt=\"Speed Week 2010, Ford Y Block\" width=\"575\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Speed-Week-2010-504.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Speed-Week-2010-504-150x99.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Speed-Week-2010-504-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.myrideisme.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Speed-Week-2010-504-400x265.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s pretty much the history of the truck.\u00a0 Where do I come in?\u00a0 Last year Charlie decided to step it up a notch and he started building a new car to try for the 200 mph Club.\u00a0 It&#8217;s a &#8217;61 Mercury Comet but I&#8217;m not sure what class he is shooting for although he has told me many times.
