1960-1962 Valiant/Lancer thread

hey bembry,
i don't want to waste space on this forum with old hotrods, but as long as you brought it up:
yes it is my 41 plymee
bought it from my brother inlaw about 7 years ago out of arizona. originally a cali. car. it is absolutely rust free buisness coupe. genuine tijuana interior. was bone stock other than the interior when i got it. i have since repainted with hotrod black, installed a mopar 8 3/4 posi rear (3:23) went to rack and pinion steering, and front disc brakes. put in a warmed up 225 slant six. my engine builder was shooting for 300 hp. lots of head work and porting manifolds, and compression raised to 10:1, offy 4 bbl intake with a 500 edelbrock, split the exh manifold, and aluminized. mated to a a-833 od trans. it is just my fun car, and i drive it as much as possible actually just last week here in wisconsin. no snow yet. done for winter now. i have had my share of high h.p. hotrods, including blowers, nitrous etc, all with s.b. chevs. but had my fun with them and all the shows, just wanted a driver fun car that i can take anyplace. the plymee fills the bill 80 all day long on the interstate, and 20 mpg!
it's one of those cars that i will never be done with as i can't leave it alone.
can't wait till summer for some cruzing
