1:6 scale Ford V8 engine

I was thinking about doing a 1950s-60s auto mechanic's workshop and looking around for props to include in it. I saw this on ebay last week for $335 and thought it was hella overpriced. Today it has been discounted to $32. I can't use it now because I have changed my project to a blacksmith's workshop but $32 seems a decent price if anyone else can use it.

It would certainly make an impressive piece in the right diorama. I suspect the ridiculously high price was an error.

Wow... amazing details. That´s why it´s expensive, i think. must be great for a garage bash with a mechanist figure

Wow! That's a beauty of a prop!
Looks like it could run!

Well, apparently I have really poor impulse control, since I just grabbed that right up. Going to look great in the garage I'm slowly building. Thanks for the heads up Shazzdan!

I never knowed such detailed were here. thank you for sharing, my friend

Not bad, imagine if it could run.....

CHEERS!

Meh, nice details but a Hemi would be better...

I totally agree!

Well, a Ford flathead V8 was a pretty damn fine engine...and I'm not a Ford guy.

I've often entertained the thought of putting something like that under the hood of an RC build, but then I'd have no place for the real motor and radio stuff. I've seen it done, though, and it's impressive.

Just a heads up,
