New project idea

[Modlbldr]

I've been tossing the idea of this one around for a while. Combined two 50 Ford straight sixes to make an inline 8. Not sure where it will head from here. Let me know what you think.

I like it Tom.... I like the odd engines you just do not see in kits these days plus there are some if you build factory stock like me one needs to find them so there correct.  I have several that need straight 6 cyls. in them of the 60s/70s era...can be a pain to find.

interesting idea.

Thanks for the comments guys. Yeah, due to the long and narrow engine bay I needed something longer than an I-6 and narrower than a V-8. I spent a bit more time this afternoon working on cleaning up the motor and extending the valve cover.

Great idea!

Thanks. This whole build is going to be from parts and pieces. I was given the chopped cab. The fenders were separate but I liked the look of them on the cab. I'm not sure what I am going to do for a bed and rear fenders. If you have any ideas, I'm open.
