67 Power Wagon
Hemi Pawr or BUST!
Guys,
As you all know I got a plastic addiction and LOVE paint & glue..... Sadly enough to go a long with my love of cars. So, having said that, what better place to ask then here? -I also belong to a model forum too but, I seriously doubt any of them, would know anything on what I'm about to say.....
So in the modeling world, there are a LOT of Mopar cars, A bodies, B bodies, E bodies, even trucks...... SO having said that, I have this odd want/desire to set out and scale a Mopar "A" engine, a Poly-Head, question is, what you all think? I have yet to see ANYTHING made in scale, and well just a unique engine and its well......different.
Now, I know a few are gonna say, SO you design it, and make it, what ya gonna use it in? WELL, off the top of my head, there are several Resin trucks made that could use it, there is always the older AMT-Ertl kits for instance the early Chrysler 300's, a few "hot Rods" like the "Little Coffin" that uses a Desoto Hemi..... ANY of the '30's Fords, to be eye catching, Then you have what? The Plymouth Satellite said to be a Fury as "Christine", then you have the AMT's '59 Imperial..... Then you have the Lindberg Little Red Wagon A100, what they say that is a '65? Why not make it a stock "street" everyday driver '64? Put a Poly in it? You also have the Lindberg '64 Plymouth Belvedere, and even the Lindberg '64 Dodge Polara 330..... I haven't even got to the Jo-Hans kits yet.... Theres numerous ones still out there waiting, waiting to be built! Those dating to and or around to the Mopar Poly-Head engines!
See where I'm going here? -Question is, I need help what would be a suggestion to which "Poly" to make, and what would be my targeted kit that it could/should be used in? I know this opening a can of worms BUT what better place to get a discussion on such a thing going then here at a REAL car forum, in the winter time among other model builders.
And to follow, at the end, where can I find WHAT the Poly Engines were offered in for this? IF anything "list" type things exist. how do I find out what the poly was offered in, by engine size?
Any help, direction, knowledge on such odd, (INTERESTING) engines is a GREAT help and is much appreciated!
