    Front and rear screen seals - quality matters

    the front screen needs replacing on the Valiant and I’ve done a good deal of forum searching (some threads go way back!) so, in 2024 who is held to be the supplier of the best quality seals for front and rear screens? And why is the rear screen so much more expensive?!

    Australian Market Valiant windshields

    The windshield in my ‘68 Valiant (2dr sedan) is starting to ‘bloom’ - going cloudy around the edges. There is a screen from an Australian VG model available nearby. Any idea of the suitability for use in my car? Cheers

    A-body Inner wings

    out of curiosity, do certain A-Body cars share the same inner wings? Ie Duster and Valiant of the same year, Dart and Valiant of the same year? Is it just the exterior panels which differ?

    Online suppler for trim screws, clips, seals etc

    18x7 front wheel backspace/offset help

    I have the chance to pick up some 7x18 4 1/4” backspace (et6)wheels for my 68 Signet. Front hubs are the ‘dreaded’ Wilwood conversions, but I have both the centre bore measurement and mounting face to centre cap measurement which will accommodate the hub sizes. Where I am unsure is where in...

    Misc. interior questions

    I thought it better to ask all at once. Interior is a ‘68 valiant, was originally a 6 cyl column shift auto with bench seat, changed to 318 4 spd by a PO. 1. Are there different mount points on the floor of versions that came with bucket seats? 2. What are these boxes called that presumably...

    68 Valiant door lock pin

    Does anyone know the thread pitch/diameter for the door lock wire which the push/pull pin screws onto? Referenced my ‘68 valiant but would imagine it’s the same for other models too?

    Newbie over the pond

    Hello folks, long story short I have become the owner of a ‘68 Valiant Signet (first A body, second Mopar - the first being a mk1 Charger, equally unusual over here in the UK). It has passed through a few owners since the person who built it but both the builder and the PO have been super...
