My name is Marc and I live in Hamburg, Germany.
I bought this thing last year and decided to get it back on the streets again. Previous owner had it stored outside in the yard, so it was a bit rusty and needed some attention. It took me about 9 months of work and a whole bunch of beer, but now this 'beauty' is legaly back on the road again and is a lot of fun to drive. Engine is a /6 with 170ci. Not loud, not fast, not spectacular.

Hello from United states. i have a 62 Just like the white one. Has a big block 440. Nice to have someone to talk to. New here too.
 
Thanks for your welcome!
The car is very solid, runs great and with the new carburetor there are no more starting problems. :burnout:

dwjnn2, how did you get this thing into this small enginebay? This car with a bb must be a lot of fun!
 
hey guys,

the valiant is still running great. Last year we dropped in a 318 out of my satellite. Was a 3-day action, heaterbox was deleted and it fits without any problems. The only thing to fix or change is the exhaust manifold driverside, tryed to do the magnum-swap but driverside dosn't fit.
Now it's got:

318ci
904 p/b
manual steering 16:1 flaming river
heater box deleted
manual brakes
2,5" exhaust

to do:
bigger/better radiator
rear axle w/ limited slip
10" brakes
