Modern Drivetrain Swap into '65 Valiant
Finally getting the energy to finish the interior sheet metal work. Really kicking myself for trying to save time by keeping the factory crossmember. I lost a couple inches of ground clearance and caused a lot of headaches for myself. Still, just want to move forward with the project. It is a poverty build after all; much more invested in labor than parts.
I still have to finish the floors and then I can revisit the engine bay and fix a couple of crucial rust spots. I really need to start painting as I go, outdoor storage has not been friendly…
