Stop in for a cup of coffee

When I used to turn wrenches for money in the 70-early 80's a woman had one she called Betsey in a 60's Dart. The rear seal was blown out and for years she did not want to fix it. There were a ton of times she brought it in for gas and when we checked the oil it was almost always 3-4 qts low. It finally got hit and totaled with around 150k on it. She gave it for the shop to use for parts and we pulled the engine and the pan had sludge molded in the pan with and you can see where the crank turned in it. Told myself the motor was bulletproof!

yea I have been threatening to put a slant six car together myself .....when you go to shows these days every other car was a slant six car and now has some joe dirt small block in it.

what happened to the untouched originals ....one barrel and all.

last time I had a slant six car ....I went and put the money into a v8 swap .....4 speed, disk brakes and 8 3/4 ....which was all nice but when it was all done ....I just wanted my old car back the way it was when I got it .....slant six/ 3 speed and all.
