Yeah thats why I offered at a low price keeping mind the work it needed. It doesn't need a heater core. I was able to do that myself. I did the front end on my Charger but the money I saved by doing it myself I didn't find it worth the hassle. It was a lot of work especially since it was a first...

I'm thinking of stopping trying to sell my 65 Valiant after lots of calls but no sales even after lowering the price so far down I couldn't believe it. I know it's not a Barracuda or even a V8 2 Door Signet. But it would be nice brought back to what it was once. The coolest thing to me was that...

I'm not putting this up for sale yet. Just want some advice. I'm going to sell my 1965 Plymouth Valiant 200 4 door. I've put a good bit of money into. I'm sure more than I will ever get out of it and you can't even tell. It needs a lot of rust repair. Floor pans being the most important which I...

I took the one signal assembly apart tonight that had the broken wires on it. I now see the spring. I had a universal 1157 socket that was similar to this one but it didn't have the notch on the side of the contact button to keep it locked in place and it had the springs under each contact. So...

I need a new gas cap for my 65 Valiant. I don't think there is a new aftermarket one available that actually fits the car. I've seen a lot of Valiant with the old aftermarket Stant S curve chrome caps. But I notice there are several of those old part numbers that look identical depending on...

Looks I will have to get new sockets for mine. I got one new bulb in and the spring somewhat "springing". The contacts don't appear to be burned. Of course I got the one fixed that is already working on my 65 Valiant. The other spare I have that I now broke is the one I really needed. It's just...

Is there a spring under the contacts? I know I took my original apart a long time ago and then it never worked again. I can't remember if it actually had a spring under the two contact wires or not. On these used ones I got on ebay I cut back some of the rubber insulation covering the wires...

I guess this is common being a 1965 Valiant. My original turn signals work but I need to change one bulb but I can't get in a new bulb. I got some spare signals on eBay and the bulbs are frozen too in the sockets. I can obviously get the old bulbs out but the spring inside the socket must be...

I've kept on to my Charger since I bought it in 2004. I always wanted a Charger ever since I was little but of course a 68-70 but never could afford one in workable shape. So I opted for a 73 which still is cool looking. I know I would regret getting rid of it even though I haven't been able to...

I've gotten too many Mopars to fund and repair. I've got this 1965 Valiant 4 Door Sedan, 1973 Dodge Charger, 1986 Plymouth Reliant and 1999 Dodge Dakota R/T. Ultimately my goal is to be able to drive my 65 Valiant or 73 Charger to my local car shows and not have to worry about a breakdown no...

Mine was like that too. The one they had on file was probably readable to them or otherwise there would've been no need to keep them on file. It was a horrible copy. I was mainly going to use the info to get a proper window sticker made from window-sticker.com but I can't get ahold of anyone...

I finally got back my build record from Chrysler Historical. I was strongly disappointed. I can't believe I paid that much. I communicated before I decided to order but wasn't told that it would be totally illegible. I've got part of the broadcast sheet that was under the seat but it's so torn...

I don't want to end up paying $50-$100 for a fuel cap on this junky 65 Valiant I got. I just need a fuel cap that will fit. Maybe if I end up getting the body restored then I would go for one of those nice new original caps. I just need something that will work but all I can find is a 67+ which...

I've got a 170 in my 65 Valiant and currently it has the small 6 inch air cleaner and air filter on it running the original type Holley 1920. I just wanted it to be different so I bought a Cleaner Air Package air cleaner off of EBAY that was said to be for a 66 Valiant with a Slant Six. When I...

I was doing a carb tune and the car stalled, so I went to restart the car and nothing happened at all. I noticed the dome light was off and also none of the lights or accessories worked. I took out the cluster because I was going to change the ammeter out anyway because the needle didn't move...

On my 65 Valiant where the antenna cable goes through the cowl should there be a grommet there? It looks like there is some type of tar material around the edges of the hole but no grommet. It's leaking through the antenna hole when it rains. I looked in the 65 parts catalog and even the 73...

Yeah mine is a Slant Six car so it has the rod type throttle. I've been meaning to post a picture of the part of the pedal I'm questioning but I'm having trouble with the pics showing up at night when I get home and have time. I finally have some off time this weekend and will finally get a...

I'm now replacing the carpet in my 65 Valiant. I removed the gas pedal from the floorboard today. I unhooked the rod going to the accelerator shaft and it looks like something should be missing off the gas pedal. In the pedal itself where the rod connects to the back of the rubber pedal, the rod...

While I was pulling out my 65 interior for refurbishment I found a partially complete broadcast sheet for my car. I'm having a hard time decoding even the simple codes. It's way too faded for a photo to show up, I already tried. But on the third row from the top of the sheet it says BUILD CODES...

Finally today with a reman carb and some distributor adjustment my 65 Valiant 170 started up and ran good. I drove it around our big driveway and it runs smooth and quiet. However, when in park it doesn't hold and the e-brake doesn't hold. It's been sitting outside for a total of about 4 years...

I got the window sticker for my 73 Charger reproduced by window-sticker.com. It was nice. I was thinking about doing it for my 65 Valiant 200 as I'm getting it closer to getting it on the road. I've never seen a 65 Valiant window sticker. Does anyone have an example of one? Chrysler said they...

I don't have the tools or the know how to fabricate even the cardboard pieces. And I know from experience the interior trim shops around think because it's old and has to be made it's got to be outrageous in price most of the time even more than ordering it pre-made. I just want everything put...

Besides Legendary Auto Interiors is there even anywhere else to get interior trim parts for my 65 Valiant 200 4DR? I can get carpet many places I see. What I need is the package tray tan without speaker holes, trunk divider panel, and trunk mat. I see some on EBAY from Collectors Auto or...

I didn't realize it but the o-ring and retainer was already on my ornament so it's all there except the silencer. What is that silencer pad supposse to silence? I think I saw one on EBAY but don't remember if it was a new reproduction or a used one.

I got a useable steering wheel just like my original, even in the same color. Along with a new horn button. I have the original wheel, and ornament. Mine is two spoke with the half circle horn ring. In the 65 parts catalog it shows 3 pieces I'm missing and I'm wondering what they're for and if...

Ok I checked the instrument voltage limiter on the back of the dash and it's working right. But I did notice that the gauges aren't working. I talked to a mechanic around here and he said on the old Chryslers like this it was always a problem with the voltage gauge. I notice the needle on mine...

Oh well maybe that's why I haven't found mine. That's the only place the carpet has been disturbed. Instead of fixing it I guess they just let the heater core leak all over the carpet, Wonder why when you see how easy it is to remove. Only chance I have is the build card, which Chrysler has told...

Yeah that was the website I used to decode my fender tag. I didn't think my Valiant originally had a radio in it because I didn't see it on the fender tag. When I got the car of course someone hacked the radio hole for an aftermarket radio and installed some speakers in the back and it had some...

So my fender tag on my 65 Valiant is pretty simple. I didn't find a broadcast sheet in the back seat or under the dash, not even any pieces of it. I still have to remove the front seat to get the carpet, but doubting it's under there either. So all I have is the fender tag to go by to put this...

Ok I went over to where my Valiant was yesterday to try and figure anything else about why it won't start with the key. I tried running a ground to the starter relay body and nothing changed. I tried running a ground to the alternator voltage regulator and nothing changed. I did notice that one...
