ALTO SAX MUSIC BOOK

The Mark VI used an F-head straight-6 engine 4.3 L (4257 cc/259 in?) in size. In 1951, a 4.6 L (4566 cc/278 in?) version of the engine was introduced. A four speed syncromesh manual transmission was fitted with the change lever to the right of the driver on right hand drive cars and on the column on left hand drive versions. The 4.3 L was referred to as the 4? L with a single exhaust and the 4.6 L as the 4? L with a twin exhaust.

The Mark VI was introduced at a time of steel shortage across Europe which translated into a desperate shortage of new cars for sale on the UK market. A Used Car report in 1951 of a three year old example with 10,450 miles (16,815 kilometers) on the odometer noted that a car which had, when new, retailed for ?4,038 including sales taxes, was now offered for sale at ?5,335. This was seen as a comment on the quality of the car but also on the continuing shortage of cars for sale.

I was really bored today so I drew this life size Mark VI Spartan helmet. I still have to add in shading and color it. Sorry for the bad pic, the paper was too big for the scanner.
