Model engines

[Car #4]

I was given these engines today. Does anyone know if there were others? It would be great to get a big block and a small block to go with them. Maybe even a leaning tower of power.

I know Summit sells them. As far as big block and /6 I don't believe they have them.

Here is a 64/65 race hemi to add to the collection.

I have one like Wayne (dadsbee)
posted above.
There’s a funny story that goes with it as well. Every year my darling wife would ask me what i wanted for Christmas and I would reply a 426 hemi! After about 4 years of that she came across one of these and when i opened it Christmas day she said “ There’s your dream engine babe”

Revell made this back in the day. A Really awesome assembly kit. You might be able to find one on ebay, marketplace or such:

I sold a lot of those back in the day. I stocked them on my Mac tool truck. They were made by Liberty Classics. No small blocks or slants that I know of.

I have those, I also have the Ford 427 SOHC and I think I have a Boss 429 in the f
Ford collectables I have from working at Ford dealers

When I moved I gave away 65 1/18 scale cars and four or five GM engines. I think I have four or five mopars and these two engines left.

That slant six model is really cool. They list the Chrysler engineer that consulted them for it and his story is on allpar. Thanks for sharing the box art!

If you find the slant 6 kit, those are very pricey. They have been out of production for years. Last time I saw an unbuilt one it was $400

Here's another assembly kit from Revell

And, when you're really, really into scale engines:

VERY cool! Did you make that yourself? If not, where did you find it?

Bought this from their site

I got this one a while ago, can’t remember from where. It’s diecast and pretty heavy. I had to put it together, it has removable bolts and is pretty detailed to include head gaskets and rubber blower belt and plug wires, etc.
