  1. I am working on the Lindberg 1964 Dodge 330, and I am planning on using the Slant 6 in the car, making it a nothing special, get around town kind of commuter car. However, I am a little confused as to what color to paint the engine. The instructions say Chrysler Engine Blue, yet they show a red engine on the box. Go figure. I checked here: And it seems to confirm that the Slant 6 should be red in 1964, but yet again, Internet searches show red & blue Slant 6 engines. Might this have something to do with the "size" of the engine? I'm kind of confused. ? Also, they say to paint the transmission Chrysler Engine Blue.
  2. Thanks, Chuck. I was leaning toward using the C4 automatic, but I think the kit has the cab parts for a manual as well.
  3. Thanks for the help, Chuck. I appreciate it.
  4. Great looking Pontiac. Well done.
  5. Great looking Plymouth. Well done.
  6. Great looking Ford C-series. Very well done.
  7. So, I am planning on swapping out the kit V8 with a VCG Resins Ford Y-Block stock F100 engine. The VCG Resins kit comes with either a Ford-O-Matic 2 speed auto trans, or a 3 speed TopLoader manual trans. I'm not sure what the AMT kit has (automatic, I think). What transmission would be appropriate for a F100? Thanks.
  8. So, I am planning on swapping out the kit V8 with a VCG Resins Ford 240/300 I6 stock engine. The VCG Resins kit comes with either a Ford-O-Matic auto trans, a C4 auto trans, or a 3 speed TopLoader manual trans. As I understand, the Moebius kit comes with a C4 auto transmission. Would any of the other transmissions listed be appropriate for a truck? What would be the most logical? Thanks.
