Our famous U/T kit....

[dpaintbizer]

I just bought the U/T off of Evel~bay ~~~ I got what I bid on... but there is no motor !!! What motor, or other kit can I git the motor/trans out of From my daze gone by, I'm not sure...but the Revell custom parts pak #1103 looked kinda familar, less the headers...I could be wrong ( ...been known to do that...)...a 58 Buick nailhead was used... Right ? Any help towards this would be great. !!! Or is anyone of you guyz in knowledge...makin a rezin repop !!!

Another option would be to use the nail head Buick found in an AMT 40 Ford kit... This is what I used in my Tymless T & Flounder used in his Uncertain C.

Easy to find as millions of those have been produced... You might want to use a different transmission with it as we did but that's your choice..!

Hizoot ;D

the transmission was a 55 pontiac cast iron hydromatic.
as for a nail head engine, there is an amt 32 ford 5 window coupe kit . it is shown on the box as being built stock, with a 4 cylinder, and the body is a blue/green color. it's a fairly recent issue (within the last year). it has a nice nailhead, with a 6 deuce intake. but you will need to find an injection intake or make one for it. the downside to this nailhead is that the intake and heads are all one peice.
as a matter if fact, here's one that's on e-bay right now cheap.
