Why the /6

Yes mam I sure is. When I was younger, like 12-13, I had been considering a 340 or a 360 (SB strokers were not the norm yet) and as I got older I got into reading all the mopar magazines. Through all the magazines I read their was always one thing in common with 98% of the cars their...

8 Cylinders. :banghead:

No love for the 6 cylinders.... No love.... So I decided I was going to keep the car a slant. Car shows in this area are ridiculous: Chevelles, Mustangs, Novas, Torino's, Crapmaros, new muscle. All bellybutton cars IMO. I still like them, they are pretty, I can respect the craftsmanship. But everyone and their bother's sister's mother's cousin's uncle's boyfriend has one.

All of them have V8's. So the plan for a long time has been to build a slant six mopar so tastefully unique that I can park it beside a Superbird and steal it's thunder lol!

I fell in love with my slant six for the..... er..... "performance". I can beat the living crap out that tiny little engine and it always comes crawling back for more. I can drive it like grandma and it buzzes along happily. It always gets me from point A to point B and I respect it for that.

As far as leaving your cars the way you met them Rani, I wouldn't think twice about it. I get really excited when I find Darts very similar to mine like that one you have, but I still have big (on the verge of crack-pipe) dreams for the car and I'll never look back. Build it the way you want it!:D
