66 Valiant Vert RUSTORATION
Wow, that changes everthing. I did not know the rockers were different. Kinda cool though! That's some beefy looking steel.
I did my entire floor pan with just one of the Harbor Freight spot weld cutters. They're only $5.

oh I just used one cutter on the floor pan and it didn't even wear the cutter, but I did a complete redo from the firewall (including 1 inner fender shield , inner and outer cowl, windshield pilllars trunk gutters,dutchmans panel and over the axle hump ) I was going to count the spot welds I cut. but was so agravated at finding even more and more hidden spots each time I tried to remove something I quit doing that at 1000 spotweld cuts "bout half way through"
my dart was close to the same shape as this valiant except I had good frame rails and torsion bar crossmember. it was the rest of the metal that sucked! I didn't have a panel that I didn't have to work on.
I wish I'd have had a donor car that was worth it to yank parts from it would have been a lot easier. I'll be watching this one to see how it goes. It should be a great car when done
it looks like you've got less sheet metal work that I had but more frame rail work. the body looks pretty good from this view maybe a little work in the jam area just full floor pans from the firewall to the trunk and frame rails I'd like to see the area behind the stainless trim on the windshield and see how bad it is. if that and the cowl are good your 100 % better off than I was.
again good luck and enjoy the car! it'll be sweet when done
