Magnum looks like a 90s truck engine. LA Looks like it belongs in there. (Small details) more power potential in the Magnum but the LA has been plenty of fun in my ‘65 Valiant!

I am looking for a NICE rear trim panel for a 65 Valiant. The piece that goes above the bumper, under the trunk lid and between the taillights. Mins is too banged up to use on my car.

I have one in my 65 valiant. I run the entire EFI system on my valiant. Works beautifully!

I had problems with rats in my rv. Pizza crumbs or some stinky cooked fish work really well as bait. I set a trap with the fish and within 15mins the rat was caught!

My advice: Take the glass out; it’s a little extra time but it makes the install process a lot easier. Use plastic clip removal tools to remove the old ones. I installed mine without the glass and I just chilled and sipped on a few beers while I did it ;)

The outer door doesn't seal; you still need a gas cap on the inside. The challenger’s factory fuel neck is plastic so welding isn’t an option. If you put the door exactly where the old one was your original fuel neck will literally slide right in through a rubber grommet and into your tank...

It was in Cocoa Village. It’s going to be an annual thing now!

Thanks, i just try not to be overly technical about things. It could confuse the children;)

I think it would look great! The nice thing about it is once it’s installed your factory fuel neck will slide right in and into the fuel tank and you can use your original gas cap!

Me!

Just a 360. Hehe

I agree! To me my car tells a story, and now I’m writing new chapters in that story with every turn of the key!

My speedo still doesn’t work because I don’t have the right cable. Does anyone know if there’s a cable I can get to convert a ‘65 speedo to a ‘73 Charger trans? Thanks!

The fuel door is from a modern challenger, it IS on bags, and the wheels are from Detroit Steel Wheel 18”x8” 4.5” backspacing on the front, 18”x9.5 5.5 backspacing on the rear with a mini tub.

I have the rear trim piece, I just haven’t made the time to polish it like the rest of the trim. It not in the best condition and it a lot of work! I put about 12 hours into the grill alone to get it where its at! I am looking for another rear panel in better condition if I can find it!

I still have quite a bit of work left to do to get my Valiant where I want it but I’m so happy that I’ve made it this far!

Yeah!

Lol, I can’t even fit bump stops!

I finally have her on the road! She’s not 100% complete but I just bought a house and had to mover her over so why not let it be the maiden voyage?! The drive went really well! the engine stayed under 180 degrees and the suspension rode very smooth for the 15 mile drive I took!

That valiant is giving me PTSD

Rechecked grounds and put back together- still didn’t work Removed starter and bench tested- worked! Removed main power wire, cut apart the heat shrink and found this: I cut it an inch back, soldered a new lug on, reinstalled, and she cranked right up!

I have 0ga cable coming from the battery, to the cylinder head, and to the fire wall.

Everything is 100% brand new, including the engine and battery. Everything has been wired correctly and it was working with no issues previously but over time started going out and now nothing. Everything else is off when cranking so we have no other items competing for current. I am going to...

Yeah, I replaced the other “new” starter with this one and it still doesn’t work...

Ive been fighting starter issues on my 65 valiant for quite some time now, it will click weakly but will not turn the engine over Pretty much Everything is new: Starter relay Dash harness Ignition switch is not new What I have tried: Checked grounds Soldered crimp connections Jumped starter...

Put the cylinder head back on and it’ll run as is!

They closed the one by me... used to go there a lot as a teenager... :(

Update! The car has been at Upholstry for several months now but it should be done by the weekend!
