I had a very interesting time this afternoon after my late lunch. After yesterday's 14hour+ work day, I knocked off early and went for a walk by Lake Michigan, in St. Joseph, Michigan. The descent to the lake is a VERY steep 250 or so feet and is a story all it's own (THIS was interesting 'hiking'). Well, it seems there are 100 junk cars down by the lake - back in '54 to '56 there were severe landslides that took out some houses. One lady tried to save her house by buying 100 junk cars and having them thrown over the side as a wave break. It didnt work, the cars are still there, as is part of her home's foundation - but the timbers, etc are all gone.
My question is this: WHAT car, that would have already been in a junk yard in 1955 or so, had a six cylinder, opposed, air cooled engine?
