Mr Dedo Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Is it true? The optional V8 is an early Hemi...does anyone know which one?
Ace-Garageguy Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 (edited) Casey's right...it's in the AMT '32 roadster kits. Detail is soggy, but it will pass for a 331, 354 or 392 Chrysler. It's backed up with an old Ford (think '39) 3-speed. There's also one in the Revell 5-window, which will also pass for a 331, 354 or 392 Chrysler. The Revell version has got very nice no-name, polished cast alloy aftermarket valve covers, but the exhaust port spacing is a little wonky for some odd reason (they SHOULD be evenly spaced, and aren't). Induction is dual 4-bbl, and the gearbox is a no-name manual. There is also an early Dodge "Red Ram" hemi in the AMT '29 roadster kits. The Hemi has been in the AMT roadster kits all the way back to 1959, though there are some engine differences in the later releases... Edited November 15, 2013 by Ace-Garageguy
Casey Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 This version has an early Hemi, too, with "Chrysler Firepower"(?) valve covers:
zenrat Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 This is the Hemi from the '29 Roadster (installed in the 33 Willys van) Pipes are from something else.
