Howdy neighbor! I'm over in Live Oak, around 17th Ave. That's a beautiful automobile you have there. Glad you're going to get her Mo-power'ed again :cheers: Feel free to hit me up here at FABO if you need a hand... -Daniel

Hey Conor- It's Daniel, Darren's dad across town from ya. Welcome to FABO! Can't believe Logan didn't take the Dart with him to school! I couldn't get Darren interested in old Mopars, either. Feel free to give me a buzz if you need a hand with the Dart...

Welcome from the land of Up Over :) Hey, we get the jealousy pangs, too, when we (well, me for sure) see the Utes (a '65 for me, thx!), the 3rd generation (67+) wagons, and Hemi 6's you guys have down there. Sweet!

Nate, you lucky DAWG! Maybe not the color *I'd* want, but the whole car is just cool. I've been wondering about how one of those hood scoops would look on the early Barracuda/Valiant, and it looks straight bad *** :snakeman: Congrats, buddy!

That's so cool, Brian! I'm stoked for ya :)

Yo Cobra- Looks like fun! But, that's a '63 Valiant ya got there. My grandma had a red on red 4 door just like yours...

I dig it Chuck! I really like the sport mirrors on it, too! What did those come off of? They totally flow with the lines on the front fenders. Keep 'er rollin'!

<sniff!><wiping tears away> That was a beautiful story...

Make that two of us, I'm with Cudaspaz on this one. With gas pushing $4/gallon, I'd cruise that /6 till it dropped (probably around 2027). Maybe an Offenhauser 4bbl/split header combo to spice things up... I :love7: red interiors, too!

Wish that was my interior shot, ValiantMike! That one was from a Mexican Valiant Acapulco with the cool center console. Check out the links in my previous post to see what it really looks like right now (not so pretty).

Well guys- It's here! Yep, kinda funky. Found some new rust spots/holes that I didn't see when I checked it on Thursday night (Note: DON'T buy a car that you haven't seen in the day time ), but nothing catastrophic. Teardown begins in 5...4...3...

Hey sublimeswinger- Thanks! The guy I bought it from said it was a 318, and due to the light blue paint on the block, I'm inclined to believe him. We'll find out for sure on tear down. 65's originally came with 273's. It's funny, I was kinda hoping for a Leaning Tower of Power /6 instead...

You bet!

Absolutely! I'll get some snapped as soon as I get 'er off of the car carrier. Once I get 'er running (and safe!), I'd love to coordinate with other local A-Body Moparphiles (that's "you guys") in the Bay Area/Central Coast. I can't wait to cruise Highway 1 to Big Sur in it come Summer '08...

Hi All- I've been lurking these forums for a while now (but feeling kinda creepy about it, not owning an A-Body Mopar), dreaming of the day I'd finally get my hands on a '65 Valiant (best lines of any year, IMHO). Originally, I was dead set on finding a V-200 2 door, 'cause they have those...
