    Coles power models has castings and plans for many engines including the Challenger V8. I have seen a few of them run and they are nice.

    The reason I included the Hudson is because of Hudson's record of winning on the early NASCAR circuit.

    I'd even like to build a small car with a 60-80 cubic inch (1-1.4 liter) transverse in-line 6. Such a car would not require a heavy structure to carry an aluminum billet engine (iron sleeves) engine.

    Use CNG or Propane or ??????? for fuel. Non-polluting, or nearly so, use Obama's Stash to fund the development of the thing.

    I've got the time, Obama's got the money. All I need is an available shop with the right equipment. That's why it will never happen.LOL

    I live 25 miles from HD HQ. VERY POPULAR FOR SCALE BUILDERS. For me, no offense intended, I'd rather do something a bit more off-the-wall. LOL

    Post #7 above was a bit tongue in cheek.
