1964 Valiant straight axle build
Thanks!
Here is the Galaxie......
When I got it:
During the change:
Paint:
Engine when I got it...2-barrel, weak distributor, etc. :
New 4-barrel, HEI, some dress-up:
After the lettering....a couple of shots with my buddies:
It launched real hard....The whole front end would lurch up, and it would leave hard....but with the 10% ethynol, stock mechanical fuel pump, and copper feul lines right next to the manifolds, it would vapor lock, and run out of gas at half track....It sucked because it was running good with that Cleveland!
I'm going to put an electric feul pump, and some real fuel lines on it for this year.
We called it "The Bad Penny" because I knew about 3 people that had it before me, and I had been trying to buy it for years, and it kept turning up "like a bad penny"
I've got less than 3k into it total, and that includes new disc brakes, and those American Racing wheels, and Pro Trac tires on the front.
Thanks!
