In line 6 cylinder engines, what kits have them?

[Hondo]

Hope this is posted in the right area....

Trying to determine what kits come/came with in-line 6 cylinder engines. (1/25)

(I did a search, but didn't get much on here)

Thinking:

1950s 3100 Chevy pickup

1970s Plymouth Duster & Deora had "Slant 6"

What else?

What Ford kits had them?

Thanks everyone!

1937 Chevy

Do you need 6's or you just wnat to know what kits they came in? I probably have a few laying about.

Pretty much looking for a resource.

A list would be great, like DZ said.

(For me, domestic & THANKS Jim, I'll keep that in mind)

Mainly looking for the kits that in-line 6 engines came in.

(And also, any 4 cylinder domestic ones)

GM, Ford, Chrysler. But imports would be included if we list them.

Thanks again

Trumpeter '63 Nova has a nice 194/230.

some pacer kits had a 258 inline 6

AMT 51 Chevy convertible has one. I assume the coupe and fastback 51's do too.

Regarding Chevy 235 and Pontiac 261 engines - most of the kits that have Chevy six cylinders have the older style rounded valve covers or the ones with the hold down bolts go through the top of the valve cover. Does anyone make the flat top valve covers and the proper air cleaner for the '58-62 engines in resin? Thanks.

[Modelmartin]

AMT and Monogram 53 Corvette kits have the Blue Flame 6. XR-6 also had a slant six chrysler. How about the Monogram Red Baron pseudo WW1 airplane engine?

[Aaronw]

The AMT 1960 Chevy pickup has an I-6 (235?).

The rocker cover can be found in the AMT '60 Chevy truck. I beleive that there is a caster doing to air cleaner, but I don't recall who at this time, perhaps Ken Kitchen? Or, if you can find one, the Jada '60 Impala diecast has that aircleaner, too.

WOW....... Awesome response, everyone.

Great info, I really appreciate it.

Hopefully, I'll be building something soon with a 6 banger in it.

(A little change of pace....)

Thanks again !

It's always nice to see something built different from a top of the line muscle or luxury car. That's one of the reasons why the new '62 Impala seems to appeal to a lot of guys - because it isn't a SUper Sport with a four speed for a change. I'd like to see one of thoise built with a 6 cylinder and a three speed standard transmission.. bench seat, shifter on the column type of thing. I know that the model has a bench seat and I applaud the manufacturer for giving us that option. I think that building something as a more mundane, common family car makes for a neat model. I like and appreciate the Super Sports and such but I sure do like to see something that would have been more of a family car. It's just a change.. and change is good. Well - change is usually good.
