I had to get this one because the first car I owned was a 1964 Dodge Coronet with the slant 6 engine. I learned pretty much everything I know about working on cars on that one, also how to drive a manual transmission. What a great car. Had to finally get rid of it when it became difficult to get parts for it. ☹️

This is a nice kit. No real issues to speak of. I'm happy with how it came out. I think this is the best interior I've done so far. Enjoy, and thanks for looking. ?

Nice work don’t see many modelers putting the slant 6 in thier mopar builds so it is nice to see that engine in builds

Very cool stock build. Clean build, but the engine really sells it for me; quite realistic appearance. Well done.

Nice clean Plymouth Sidney. I had an Australian 1965 Chrysler Valiant AP5 station wagon with the 225 cu.in. slant six and 3 speed column shift manual transmission. I surprised more than a few V8 drivers in it. Again, well done on a clean build.1963-chrysler-valiant-ap5-safari-station-wagon.jpg.2c4f2b32f128ebc307263ecd3b224c05.jpg

P.S. pic is not my actual car, just one I googled for comparison.

Ah yes...another great car. Used to see tons of them on the road. At the time I had my Dodge, a good friend had Valients. He'd buy several used ones, drive on and keep the others for parts. ?

That is a gorgeous build! Is this the kit that also has the V8? And is the plaid inlay a decal? 

Yes, the kit comes with a V8, and the seat inlays are decals...the first I've printed in quite a long time. I posted in the tips & tricks section of the forum about the ,"no spray" decal paper I used...great stuff.

Even better, since you printed them yourself!
