Abandoned in some Middle Eastern country due to draconian debt laws ?

I think it's usually that the person went into debt, couldn't pay, and fled the country to avoid jail time.

It gets better when you know its a straight six with a single turbo/single exhaust. And the turbo outlet is only like 3" anyway. It's literally like a penis sleeve/extension.

Ambassadorofsodomy posted:In that era, the straight six could in fact be a slant 6. That's going to be one of the end of that generation, I think (hard to tell without looking at the front end, with the custom paint/bodywork) but I'd guess '90-91, which should be a Cummins or V8 in a 4x4, especially if it's a 3/4 ton. They stopped using the Slant 6 in 1987. But that would be even more hilarious. I'd be really surprised if it was a 5.9 V8. Nobody ever seems to do that stack thing with the V8 in the Rams. Mind you, Dodge themselves did it in the '78-79 Lil' Red Express and Warlock pickups. Which, BTW, was the coolest thing ever when I was 10-year old. which was when the trucks were new / Blue Footed Booby posted:Any straight six can be a slant six if you gently caress up the frame enough True that. This talk of slant engines reminds me of the Pontiac 4-cylinder from the '61-3 Tempest that was literally half of a Pontiac 389 V8. That was kind of a neat trick. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pontiac_Trophy_4_engine This was the same car that used a shaft in a torque tube to connect that engine to a rear transaxle.

The Pontiac straight six was also a cool thing, at least the SOHC variant from 1966 to 1969.
