now there's a cummins

Great looking engines. We had a thread on these very engines a few months back, when they were still being developed and the first casting was made. They are a little on the small side for a Tamiya, cast at 1/16 scale, but perfect for a Wedico. Thought about buying one just for that, but I'm not sure I'll have the room with the day cab, for a complete engine under the hood. It's a great looking engine though.

my "86" bc 3 is cummins beige the "75" 230 sc was red and I had a 350 sc that was red I think was in a early "70's" late "60's" transtar . the "78" 290 sc was beige . the"70's" transtar we got for parts , had a beige 903 . All those motors had factory paint I also looked at a "78" paystar with red . I'll have to ask the guy I know @ 5 star IH , he knows his cummins but they shut the parts counter down in reading and moved him to allentown , so I don't get to see him much + I'm not fixing much any more . I'm not sure IH had much to do with the paint . I believe a lot of the earlier SC where red and not just in the IH's I've seen them in Whites
