Which one get's the new motor

[dodge71demon]

5.9 Magnum - Fitech fuel injection - A833 4 speed

4 door or copper car

I vote 4-door...at least to break it in.

 

[Projectile Dart]

my car is ready now if you can't decide
I vote copper car

 

[halfafish]

I vote copper car!

I would say to put it in the 2 door copper Scamp because it looks like it's almost finished.
The 4 door Valiant would be cool with it too if you are going for a sleeper.

I was setting in the shop and the POS 4 door first said save me so I did now it's pissed at me for not giving it a new heart

7 to zero for the copper car so far....easy choice

 

[MerlinsMopar]

4 door, for sure! Older cars should stay with the era motors. Worth my 2 sense. Lol

why would you put a new motor in a partscar?

 

[abdywgn]

you could always "donate" the parts car to me
then you would not have any problems about which vehicle to put the engine in...

More than a parts car to me started that way but decided to save it doing little things here and there it will be a good daily driver

Yea, badass motor for that car. It would take it to another level. The later years were low comp mostly and not much in the hp area either. The copper 1 deserves a nice la or big block! That 5.9 would be a great fit for the 4 door. Good luck which ever way you go!

Are both of these cars engine-less?
Do both of these cars have the manual transmission floor pan?

If so, I vote 4 door. That would make for a great sleeper. The copper car already looks like it will be fast so it needs some big power. Don't get me wrong, the Magnum 5.9 will be fun (I have one myself) but unless it's cammed, etc. it might be underachieving compared to the looks of the 2 door hard top.
