Death of a /6

I was very hard on my /6. About a year after I bought my 64, I blew it up. I actually ran it out of oil. At the time, I wasn't sure of much (16), the sending unit wire came off and I didn't know until one day on the 680 in the Bay area .....BOOOOOM......... then nothing. That's how I learned to work on cars. Tore it apart and the #2 connecting rod snapped. Had it rebuilt, then drove it for over 130K miles, several times running it out of water. Hit a coyote once, then drove it about 10-15 miles before it quit running. Replaced the radiator and fan next day, in the dark on the side of the highway. Fired right up afterwards. Finally decided to do the swap so I scattered the motor and gave it to my brother for his Valiant. Boy did that engine look good inside! Machine shop said only one piston head had actually compressed, other than that, it was still in great shape. Yes, it still ran extremely strong before the teardown. Anyway, best motor ever!!!
