Right, and I also refuse to watch any of the news channels. They spent 5 years to get what they are getting now. How did they do it? Stuff votes. Sorry for the Viatribe, but I am still ticked off.

For some reason, or other, I prefer the 30’s-40’s much better, even with this music. Guess I am old.

Just talked with a guy that I work in security with. He also manages two Advanced Auto stores. He’s going to get me a price on one.

I have a 22” radiator out of a 71 A Body. Clutch fan, shroud and a fresh 408 built engine. 220+ today, and yes I’m worried. The radiator looked good, so we didn’t worry about it. Now, I’m not so sure. I have a Champion aluminum available, but that one didn’t cool so well when had it in the...

When I was looking for these manifolds a couple of years ago, I thought that the new ones were $599, but I could be wrong. I bought one by itself, drivers side, then found a passenger side with a broken bolt hole, the front. He had the piece broken, and I had Ostrich Racing weld it on...

Nice color there on your 68.......looks familiar. Here’s the dash finished, and I am one that likes the blue. There are options for different colors, but no white. Green, a reddish color, and one other that I can’t remember

Ive only seen three sets of Westlake heads, if you want to count the set on John Buttera’s 32 coupe that he built in the late 70’s. He had to fabricate a water pump for the street, but it worked. He drove it from California to the Street Rod Nationals, I believe it was the last one in Memphis...

Thanks for all the information. The Lil Valiant should have it’s rebuilt motor in it by then. Don’t think that I want to try racing it, but love to enjoy the car show and swap meet. And yes, watch the racing. I’m dating myself here, but I watched them pour the asphalt that was suppose to the be...

I can’t remember what the company’s name is, but there is a company in the Northwest, Seattle I think, that is making the 68-71 high performance 340 manifolds now. They are an exact copy of those. I, almost went with them, but was able to find a good stock set. Blast them, weld on ear on one of...

Just thought that I’d show, and let you all know one of the last Peak Dashes now has a home in my 69 Valiant. Can’t remember how long that I’ve had this piece, and the Dakota VHX gauges. Love the look, and it all should be done in a week or two. Had the motor out for a freshening up, lowered the...

The color on the panel doesn’t show correctly, as it is darker than shown here. Probably the flash made it appear this light.

Finally getting this dash ready to put in my 69 Valiant. I have the Digital VHX analog digital gauges. Had a slight problem, as the holes were a little too small and had to be opened up for my Dakota gauges. Here they are in the panel.

Have they cancelled it or just moved it to another date?

I think that mine are 255 x 50.

What is the tire and wheel size. I lucked out with mine, as I used a 17” x 8” rear wheel, and I can get my little finger between the fender edge and tire.

Found a good 360 pan, so all is good. Not Needed now.

In need of a good 360 oil pan for my Valiant 360.

My Valiant has a 74 LA 360 in it, and we are building it now. I’m not certain that a 318 pan will work. Larger mains on the crank than 340/318.

I’ll take. The 360 oil pan if it is still available. Hemisedan@yahoo.com

This is needed for the 340 hi performance exhaust manifolds as well, too.

Let me know if this doesn’t go thru, as I am interested in these.

I wonder if this show will be held this year, with the COVID 19 virus we are all fighting now. It seems everything else is either, being cancelled or put off until Fall. Anyone know?

Denny, very nice. Good Iowa car hehehehe. Yes, I remember from where you got it. Never could figure out as to had this and other SS Mopars. You did well.

Thanks, didn’t notice the front picture. PM me.

I have to agree with you! I wonder why.

What’s the front look like?

No, the Duster has the 108" wheel base, while the Dart has an 111" wheel base. And also, the car lengths are different. The Duster rear seat is just a little narrower. Of course, a good upholstery shop could stretch, or modify the seat frame to fit, I believe. I have both, and there are a couple...

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this, but I have a question about B-body and A-Bady bucket seats. I was told many years ago, that they were actually the same except for the cover design, and the seat runners. Does anyone know for certain about this? I'd like to do something a bit different...

My seat belts. they are original, are a very dark green, as are the release handles. Even the shoulder belt, which by the way I have always hated in these 68-9 Mopars.

Very, very nice. I thought about 18" wheels when I got mine two years ago. I went more, almost like the 69 Recall Wheels though. Nice car. Not many Valiants at the shows. At our Des Moines GoodGuys Rod & Custom show.
