Speaking of 6 cylinder powered cars.....

Sorry for the semi-hijack here, but I attended a cruise yesterday and this rolled in. It's a Grand Ma fresh `68 Dart 2 dr. post that sounded like it had a healthy V-8 in it. Then he popped the hood: :lol:

That's very cool, and certainley not a Hijack, do you have any pictures of the rest of the car?

Nick

Of course not! banghead.gif

It was a Gold 2 dr. post w/ body colored steel wheels with serious rubber. It had rust coming through the wheel lips & the paint was shot, but the patina was impeccable! Too bad I'm an ^%$#$%^* and never photographed it. If I can get a shot from friends that were there, I'll post it. It really was a sweet old car with all the update money divided between 6 cylinders... eek.gif

Not the best shot, but it was all I could get!

it's a beauty B)

And yes, that car had a good-mojo vibe about it. It's ALL THERE... but scruffy. Just a "little" rust... dulled-metallic paint....some bumps & bruises...and a really nice interior. I'll photograph it more the next time. He's a member of Long Island Mopars too. I'm sure I'll see him again.

Not to taunt, but you should have heard it.... boogiebanana.gif

very cool Dart sedan!

if we are talking 1:1 cars, i've had a few 6 powered rides but with the exception of this one, none were really anything to get excited about or worth mentioning really. i just happened to really like this Dart, but i would have liked it alot more with a V8

Is it a `71? Those cars are bulletproof. Besides my Barracuda and the Wife's GTI, we also have a `74 Dart Swinger we use as a beater. Slant 6/ auto/power steering.

I left this car buried under 9' of snow for 3 months. I waited until I could open the door, hit the gas 3 times, and the SOB fired right up. I have customer's that can't leave their new Infiniti's for 3 WEEKS without it going dead!

Now, before we're reminded we're straying off topic....

I found another old build from a million years ago with a 6 cylinder

I have to dig this out & re-shoot it. It's a Heller BMW Dixie with a 392 Hemi cut down to a V-6

Does anyone know any model kits that come with a flathead 6 instead of the regural inline sixes.

If you just need the engine, There's a company called PTX mini-engines that makes very detailed 1/25 die casts and the Ford flathead six is one of them.

AMT's 41 Plymouth has a fairly nice flathead 6 for the kit's vintage. That's the only one I know of.

The Revell ASA Ford racecars from the early 90's have the circle track version of the V-6. There we 2 or 3 different cars represented if I remember correctly.
