As with Steele, only list front screen for my year….

Thank you :thumbsup:

Steele don’t list a rear for the car. Is the glass in any other ABody the same, Dart maybe?

Sorry I should have put year - it’s a ‘68 2dr. I was looking on the Dante page and whilst the front is 139 or 169, the rear is 100+ more. By the stiff state of the rubbers front and rear and the delamination of the front screen, if they aren’t original they’re very old - and muddy under the...

the front screen needs replacing on the Valiant and I’ve done a good deal of forum searching (some threads go way back!) so, in 2024 who is held to be the supplier of the best quality seals for front and rear screens? And why is the rear screen so much more expensive?!

Apologies for the slight hijack, saw this comment and I have been searching for similar - are there drain runs in corners of the screen opening then?

Sorry man I’m only needing to know if American and Australian models used the same screen

Are the tail lights in reasonable condition and would you post to England?

The windshield in my ‘68 Valiant (2dr sedan) is starting to ‘bloom’ - going cloudy around the edges. There is a screen from an Australian VG model available nearby. Any idea of the suitability for use in my car? Cheers

Yeah, the car pulls well for what I want - that’s not been an issue. Im curious more than anything to know what it’s making so some dyno time is in order. Would also benefit from some carb tuning no doubt - that’s beyond me, I need to learn about it

I’d love this for mine. The postage to England would probably be a killer :eek:

Well it look longer to get round to than hoped but I managed to get the compression figures. All 160 or close enough, the gauge is in 5psi increments and the needle was either tipped just under or over the mark. Warm engine (idling 15 mins) Now who would like to do the math :D

Morning! I’m usually away on the. ‘Bike over Easter (first long weekend of the year) but I will do if I’m about, it’s only a short drive. Where in hants are you?

I do mean inner fender wells - sorry :D That’s good to know, thank you :thumbsup:

out of curiosity, do certain A-Body cars share the same inner wings? Ie Duster and Valiant of the same year, Dart and Valiant of the same year? Is it just the exterior panels which differ?
