Daily driving an A-body
I use my 65 Valiant V200, 273 auto as a daily driver. It's pretty good on gas, and can keep up to highway speeds no problem with the 2.94 gears out back. It is super reliable, and I am comfortable driving it anywhere. Of course, I have replaces a few items, but the previous owner put new rings and seals in the engine, and I replaced all wheel cylinders, put on a dual master cylinder, upgraded the wipers, upgraded to 14" rims with new tires, new fuel pump, etc.
I don't have a picture of it now, but this is it when I first bought it. Paid around $500 for it. I since have also fixed that quarter panel a bit, and replaced the grill, and found straight headlight bezels.
