    Fuel sending unit gasket

    Where do I find a good fuel sending unit gasket for 65 Valiant / Barracuda? Also I need to replace the universal joints. I don’t have an original drive train so there is no ball and reunion front universal joint in the car anymore. Where’s the best place to get aftermarket joints? I don’t trust...

    Neat 64 Valiant wagon

    I love the patina on this one. Too bad it's all the way out in San Francisco on Craigslist. The price isn't too bad either, although the slant 6 isn't any good in it and it's a 3 speed right now. Could you imagine it with a 340 4 Speed and some Chrome or polished aluminum wheels? Who else loves...

    65/66 Dart/Valiant windshield seal

    Where can I get a good windshield seal for a 65 Valiant and a 66 Dodge Dart without spending a lot of money? I had one I was going to use, but I found out it got ripped. It is 50 years old. Is it the same windshield and seal for the two cars?

    WIW silver 65 Barracuda commando

    I normally don't like these questions, but yet I'm going to ask this because I'm unsure what I'm willing to pay. Tjere is a 50,000 mile 65 Barracuda Commando car, not a formula S car, with a 273 Commando and 4 speed in it for sale locally. I'm going to look at the car tomorrow and possibly make...

    Does anybody know if a 65 Valiant trunk lid will fit on a 66 with little or no modifications? Also, are the back windows interchangeable?

    63 and 65 door difference

    If I have a 65 Valiant front door to put on a 63 Valiant, I know that the door will physically fit, but there is something different about the striker plate on the post. Can I change out the striker plate from a 63 to a 65 Striker plate to make the 65 door operate properly? Who knows this for sure?

    How many is too many?

    Are you other guys generally like me and as long as you have space to fill and money to buy something you will get it whether you'll get to it or not? Granted there aren't too many early a body cars around here for sale, but when I see one I really want to get it, but I don't always do. Do you...

    66 Dart station wagon vs 66 Valiant driveshaft

    I am needing a driveshaft for the 66 Dart station wagon that I just got, but the wagons are hard to find. Isn't the driveshaft for the 66 Valiant the same as the Dart station wagon, since the Dart wagons are the same length as the Valiants? Has to have the slide in front yoke. Nothing before 66...

    65 Valiant Signet convertible project; where to start?

    It has been since I have started a car from scratch. It has a supposively, rebuilt engine put in it, but has the wrong motor mounts (engine coooked) and it isn't currently running (electrical issues). The body is needing work along the bottom of the quarters and the top is trash. Where do you...

    63 to 66 A-body floor pans

    For my 65 Valiant, what are the best fitting and most factory looking floor pans out there? I have used one brand given to me by a friend, but it didn't fit well and had to be modified toward the outside to make it fit. What is the best one for the price, too? Does anyone have floor pans that...

    When it is time to sell.

    I got a 64 Dart out of the garage this weekend that I wasn't using and sold it, but then I got my 65 Barracuda out to drive around which is fully licensed and insured as a regular car, not an antique. I am not feeling the love for it. My first car was a 65 Barracuda 6 cylinder and this is a...

    65 Siggy

    I finally picked up a 65 Valiant Signet as I have been wanting one for some time. This one is blue outside and light blue inside and has had one repaint. The floors and frame and cowl are solid, which is quite a surprise. Unfortunately,t he front of the hood is rusted thru all the way across. It...

    64 Dart and 64 Valiant

    I have a 63 Valiant with running engine trans and rear that I want to put into a 64 Dart. Will the driveshaft work? In other words, are the driveshafts the same length in a 64-64 Dart and Valiant? I know the Dart is longer in length. I am thinking the the driveshaft needs to be two inches...

    65 Valiant fender dog-legs

    Does anyone know where I can get ahold of some front fender lower rear sections (dog-legs) to replace the rotted ones my car currently has? I can cut them off of damaged fenders or get newly fabled ones to weld on. I could make my own with the flared edge, but I can't make them as nice as the...

    65 signet with vinyl top

    I found a silver 65 Signet slant 6 auto with a black vinyl top today that was going to be taken to the crusher due to lots of rust issues. Car was setting outside under a tree with rear windows stuck open. Looks like kind of a rare car, but not sure if it is worth fixing up. YOur thoughts on...

    66 Valiant auto column shifter

    I installed a 66 steering column with auto shifter in a 63 Valiant and i don't have the shifter mechanisms/linkages to the transmission and I am not sure what should be there. Does anyone have a 66 service manual or know where there is on online where I can see what parts I am missing. Car now...

    64 intake manifold

    I am looking for a 4bbl intake manifold for an early 273 from 64 or 65. If I can't find one locally, I'd like to know how to modify the bolt angles to make a 67 cast iron intake work on a 64 engine. Has anyone done this or know where to find info on it? Thanks in advance.
