ratdoggy Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 I was wondering since my dad had a '68 Dart (not Hemi of course) is there a slant six engine out there someplace? Dad had a stripped down one and I remember going to the dealer with him to look for a car and I of course wanted him to get something with stripes and chrome wheels but since I was 8 my vote didn't count Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FASTBACK340 Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 The Lindberg `64 Plymouth Fury has a real nice slant six. If your serious, send me your mailing address and I'll ship you the parts to build one. I have a few extras laying in the parts bucket.

ratdoggy Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 I'll try and pick up the model today. maybe my wife didn't count how many I have to build yet. But if she does I'll have to start counting her shoes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

my74cadillac Posted February 16, 2014 Author Share Posted February 16, 2014 i know you cant see it that well but i ran the throttle cables. still need to do the gas lines. also ran the brake lines into the master cylinder. i also took off the arm rests on the door panels and put a chrome tape on the panels then sanded them a little to look like brushed aluminium. i was going to do a two tone yellow and orange paint but it kept cracking so i painted it intense blue pearl.

Dragfreak Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Do you plan on running the nitrous lines, a coupe fuel regulators, and the solenoids since you're scratching the bottle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
my74cadillac Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 ya i think i will use the nitrous set up and make fuel regulators and solenoids Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6bblbird Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I was liking the yellow but the blue looks real nice. Word of advice: Ditch the power brake booster. Real race cars don't have them. Not enough engine vacuum to make them work and on a real Dart you would never be able to remove the valve cover. WF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
my74cadillac Posted March 15, 2014 Author Share Posted March 15, 2014 finished the engine interior is finished scratch built the tack wired the starter when i did a test fit with everything i saw that the cut lines that they want you to use for the rear wheel wells were to big so i cut it off the frame and made my own Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
