Hi everybody

Here`s my ride. 1968 Valiant, hand lettered, Lexan all round, was a standard build 340, 727 with shift kit, Ford 9" with 411 gears, caltracs on rear, comp eng drag shocks up front. Been all through this car and it drives so nice now. Car ran a 12.0018 sec 1/4 with the 340 but have now sold it and am fitting a blown 360 ( aiming for 450 hp ). will be replacing with a 408 stroker in a few months.

:cheers:

Neat car.

Should be able to make that 450 horse without the blower on the 360.
 
Hey, I live 5 miles from Puyallup! Did you buy that car and ship it or was it yours already and you moved over there with it?
 
Hi Red

The car came from up state NY. I got some random stuff off the internet and just painted it on the car ... doesn`t mean anything ... just a bit of fun
 
Welcome to FABO.That car looks like a lot of fun. Keep us updated with your changes.8)
 
That car looks like a blast from the not distant past on the track. Real cool!!!!!
 
Let us know how the blown motor goes like!

Looks like your having fun!
Welcome!

LOL, that's kinda funny. Puyallup is on the west coast near Seattle and Korum Motors is a local Dodge dealer. I bet they'd goet a kick out of seeing their name on a car on the other side of the planet.

Either that or they`ll track me down and sue the *** off me
( they won`t find me !! )

Here`s a pic of the car in USA .... I don`t know much about it. It was owned by a guy called Sean, had a Rhode Island dealer tag on at some time, raced at Winston dragway, and had a decal in the window " Eastern Hot Rod Association, Drawer g, Long Valley, NJ 07853 "

Here`s a pic of me painting it too.

Would be cool to find out its history
