Finally finished the 74 valiant that we picked up a year ago as a gutted shell with most of the interior left. Buffed and polished the original paint and it came back to life.
Tossed in a 318 out of the tan 73 duster and it runs strong but is a total mystery of what parts are inside. Also left the paint as is on it.
Rebuilt the front end and added a front sway bar may even toss a factory rear sway bar on to if we change the rear end out.
Just gonna keep looking for an 8 1/4 with a sure grip to replace the 7 1/4 even though it is a perfectly fine for what we gonna do with it.

Let me know how you like

Awesome job there.
Good to see someone fixing up a 4 door instead of parting it out as usual.
I have a soft spot for 4 doors....
 
Simple, handsome, honest Mopar. Perfection. :)

Wonderful machine...congrats on finishing a project and thanks for sharing your pictures!

How did your front spoiler install go? Could ya post a few pics of it mounted and what you mounted it too?

I like it.nice driver...
It rides incredibly smooth just around the neighborhood
 
Very nice. It's great seeing these cars preserved and loved. At shows I always try to show my appreciation for the 4 doors and the wagons.

Have fun with it.
