What a steal, Rust free 4 door Valiant
Was cruising craiglist looking for parts for my barracuda, and came upon this monster of a 68 signet:
No engine or trans, but completely rust-free, new tires, new heater core, new 8 3/4 rear end, master cylinder, new brakes all around, new power steering pump. every piece of trim is there, body is straight, passenger side has already had the body work done and has been etch primed and primed, just needs block sanding, all the annoying stuff like the dash and gauges have already been replaced, brand new. If all that weren't great enough it still has the stock radio, uncut dash.
paid $250 for it. seriously thought the price was a typo at first.
I'm just torn between wanting to restore it with a /6 and 904 and just re-cover the original bench seats and leave the /6 kframe OR put the v8 kframe in, with a 318 or 360 and use 4 , modern bucket seats, grant steering wheel, a brake booster, wilwood conversions all around, etc etc.
Both routes would be equally cool but I just wanted a 3rd party opinion on the matter.
