Who remembers Valiant effort

Ha...
I didn't care if women or my buddies liked the cars that I owned. IF they did, that was nice but it sure wasn't why I picked them.

That car was a hodge-podge....

It started out a 318-904-7 1/4 axle with rubber floor mats...

I used it for a video movie that I made in 1998-99. It had a Dukes of Hazzard theme...

Through the window you can see it's sister, the stunt car I used for jumps and crashes.
Once I finished the movie, I painted the Duster black...

I sold it for $3000 in 2001. I wonder what it would be worth today....

Ha!
Yeah....The things we did THEN, versus what we do now!
The car was originally a Gold color:

That was the mid 90s before I jumped back into Mopars with both feet and learned the correct ways to restore them. I still have much to learn but I don't do that anymore!

Mid 90s, when I was in 5th grade lol

Mid 90s.....30 years ago and it seems like just a few years.

Back in those days, nobody wanted a valiant so it might have been considered a fail car that you got because that was all you could afford or find.

When I bought my first valiant, a few people asked me why I wanted such a car when they were far from "in fashion"

Now it's a completely different story when people see a Valiant

Don't see too many Valliant's, when I was shopping for an A Body it wasn't even on my radar, figured Dart or Duster Maybe Cuda.

That's the truth. The older I get the faster time goes by....
