'64 Dodge A100 Deora Show Truck?
o, being a Dodge fanatic, and wanting a slant 6 and not being able to find that in the Lindberg kits, I've found it in the Deora Show Car model. But why they call it a "Show Car" is beyond me, as it truly is a truck thats loosely based off the '60's Dodge A100 pick ups, (like that of the Little Red Wagon model we all know of!
But, I merely bought the kit just for the engine! I want the Slant 6 for another project, I want to build my Grandfathers last car, that he had for 30 years to see him through, He passed owning a Plymouth Volare, with a 225 Slant 6 powering it....
See the following:
225 Slant 6 Engine ---^
Chromed Engine parts ---^
Hideous Yellow body ---^
Other Chromed parts ---^
This is my 331 "Red Ram" Hemi, prior to be getting "Chromed"! The whole block, both heads, valve "Valley" oil pan, and timing chain cover/water pump unseen (they, already chrome!) but the whole thing EXCEPT the valve covers will be CHROME, its a show truck, right?
The Valve covers, where they should be red, will be same color as the body color, with a black wire router "cover" down the center of them!
More to come as progress is gained!
