Pat Minarick Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) Found this looking for something else! Can't remember when I started this one.The wing is missing ,I can build a new one.But I'll have to get new headlights and taillights?I think I might have work on this one again. I do remember it was going to be a street car! Edited July 25, 2012 by Road Runner 79
Wagoneer81 Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 Finish! Definitely FINISH! You have a wonderful, clean start, it'd be a waste to put it back in the box.
Pat Minarick Posted July 21, 2012 Author Posted July 21, 2012 Oh ya, you need to finish that puppy ! Finish! Definitely FINISH! You have a wonderful, clean start, it'd be a waste to put it back in the box. Thanks guys!
Pat Minarick Posted July 25, 2012 Author Posted July 25, 2012 What do you guys think about a slant six?
tooltas Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 no a hemi is right for the style of car its more of prostreet/promod car
signguy2108 Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 I would have to drop everthing else and finish this one! Cool ride, wedge with tall injector stacks, nostalgia A/FX car.
moparfarmer Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 I like where this is going since I am a Mopar freak(64 yr old freak) Even in the dark green plastic it looks KILLER. Some dark green/light green with a light colored interior to set off the contrast. Anything but black interior and no yellow wiring please. Going to be a sharp machine when your done. Continue on and for sure post more pictures.....
Pat Minarick Posted July 25, 2012 Author Posted July 25, 2012 Ok ,How about a Hemi headed Slant Six With tall injector stacks?

tubbs Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 i am a "the more the cubic inches, the better" type of guy, so i would suggest a max wedge with the injector stacks. just because the hemi was introduced in 64, i know dumb reason........ but ......... that leaning "tower of power" (slang name for the slant 6) just the way you discribed would really get some people talking!!! can you imagine, 1 row of 6 injector stacks out the hood and a fenderwell header out only one wheelwell? now that would be different!
tooltas Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 in a highboy yes but it got that street freak look too it so why not wild blown hemi
mnwildpunk Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 Ok ,How about a Hemi headed Slant Six With tall injector stacks? i like where your head is going. It would be gnarly. I also agree on the green choice man real choice
Bartster Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 Love this one, it's been my new favorite car for a few months now. That will probably change when l get mine built, lol. PLEASE finish this one!! Bart
jw78z28 Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 I saw a 59 elcamino with a blown straight 6 once it was very cool & dif.. so how about a blown slant 6. I was going to build one for a Dick Landy cuda I have that is missing the motor and trans.
CorvairJim Posted July 25, 2012 Posted July 25, 2012 If you go the Pro Mod route, you won't need to find new headlights and taillights. Just fab up some blanking plates and call it good. I think I might just steal the injected straight-6 idea for a fuel altered '66 Nova SS I have in the works. The six-in-a-row injector stacks and six-pack set of zoomies sounds different enough to be a real blast to build... I like off-the-wall stuff like that!

Thanks Tubbs ! I like different!
Pat Minarick Posted July 26, 2012 Author Posted July 26, 2012 Thanks everyone ! I think I'll have to go with the Hemi head slant six.I think the six injector stack in a row would be cool, not sure what to do for the exhaust since the intake and exhaust come out the same side . I may just run the exhaust out the other side of the head.I'll try to work on this one soon got alot ahead of this to finish!
kobuzz Posted July 26, 2012 Posted July 26, 2012 Can you post more pics of the Boothill? I'd like to see what you did for the suspension. Looks killer!
tubbs Posted July 26, 2012 Posted July 26, 2012 (edited) just run the exhaust out the same side, under the car, but group them in 2 sets of 3. hey, i am the biggest pro streeter fan alive (by the way, pro street is not dead!! just had to say that.) i'd love to see a top feuler style hemi poking out of that thing... problem is i am putting one together also. i was heading in this direction at first (see photo), although i am leaning towards a more streetable max wedge motor Edited July 26, 2012 by tubbs
Pat Minarick Posted July 27, 2012 Author Posted July 27, 2012 Got a few things on your plate I see Yep!
Pat Minarick Posted July 27, 2012 Author Posted July 27, 2012 Can you post more pics of the Boothill? I'd like to see what you did for the suspension. Looks killer! I'll try to put some up later. It's a Raiders Coach with a couple of Boothill Express parts.

I always liked 63 Fury's, My dad had a red on red 361 4-speed car
