Sounds like an old Plymouth Valiant I had. A couple of teenagers bought it from a junkyard, cleaned it up and got it running.
I bought it from them and ran it hard for a couple of years, had a valve job done on it and when the rest of the engine was utterly worn out my dad took the heads off and used them on his old “slant six” engine.
Total investment? About $300.

The old “slant six” engines were like ugly shirts, they just seemed to last forever.

Plymouth Valiant was my first car, not much to look at but a GREAT CAR. I was given the car, it needed a short block job done on it, once done the car ran and ran and ran until I gave it away to someone and it STILL RAN.

Like you said: "The old “slant six” engines were like ugly shirts, they just seemed to last forever."

As for the VOLT, it is an Obama/Greens wet dream come true and TOTALLY useless... it is still-born and DOA. No none in their right mind is going to buy this Obamamobile.
