If this a 1960 picture ??? the motor would have been a 348 cu. in. w-motor1958-1965.  The car was own by Jack Howard (his hobby car he ran at wall the year before).  The first 409 came out in 1961,  The motor in this car was owned by Louie Starr.  Bob drove the car a time or two on dirt only, the motor has an algon fuel injector which I think we got in August of 1961.  I still have the  algon & two big cu. in. 409s in the barn hoping to used on a project before I hit 80 lol
