1963 Valiant Wagon "Candy girl"
For the driveline I plan to install a good running slant six from a 72 demon. Original tired engine but it will get it running and I can get everything plumbed before I paint the engine compartment.
Last time I painted a car, I painted the engine compartment before test fitting everything and realized I needed to drill holes and didn't need some holes there..... after it was painted!! So I'm not making that mistake again.
I have a "performance" 225 being built for this car with over a thousand dollars of go fast goodies but unfortunately I took the block and heads to a machine shop before the covid pandemic and here its months later and the shop is still closed and doesn't look like I'm getting my parts back anytime soon so the original tired slant six will fill in for now.
