1966 Plymouth Valiant
It’s been a while since I posted but I’m back at doing some work and getting out and enjoying some drives. A couple of weeks ago I replaced the bench seats with some buckets I snagged. The buckets are in pretty rough shape but they are so much better than the original seats!
I also did some rust repair on the drivers side. The non-Craigslist side of the car had some damage. The drivers door had been replaced already and I used a donor door to pull the skin off and use a piece for the worst of the rear quarter. Of course there was rust in the inner fender, I did my best in replacing the steel but had to resort to fiberglass in one small corner, I just couldn’t get a piece of metal in there without doing major cutting.
It turned out pretty well. Please don’t judge, this is not any kind of restoration, I just like working on things like this. You all are the real pros!
