Some of the latest from the body shop. The trunk extensions, lower rear quarters, lower front fenders, have been repaired,all stainless has been polished and most weather-stripping has been replaced. And yes, im going back with a black vinyl top like original. sorry guys.

nice vinyl top 2 door valiants seem to be few and far between.
 
Wow, what a beauty....i´m jealous ;)

Future plan for mine is a big B-Engine, too. Please let us know how it´s handling....and forget about the vinyl top idea :D

Nothing really new here to report. I've spent most of 2014 working on the 71 Charger R/T. I was going to try an STR manifold on the Valiant but just couldn't get it together before picking up the charger. I have the linkage and two brand new race Holley 390 carbs. I'm just not sure I want to put myself through the headaches of the STR, and im positive it wont perform as good as the Victor, but it would look cool.
 
I have seen a few white with black vinyl top cars and they look sharp. I bought my hood from VFN and it's a bolt on. I need to drop it off so they can put a 6 pak scoop on it for me.
 
I had to go back with the black vinyl top on the white car. I do like the look of a vinyl top on anything really.
 
wow, nice. The trim I found was from a Dart sedan I believe and it had to be shortened a bit to make work.
 
Yeah. I dig up odd ball stuff. I have boxes of Nos stuff for my car
 
Well I have to join the gang here.Picked up a 68 a few months ago.Went back and read all the posts.Thank you for all the great ideas.Waiting to see your finished product.
 
No updates really. I haven't had the car uncovered for some time now. Ive been concentrating on the 71 R/T charger and 68 Hemi R/T Charger.
 
Ah, come on, that are boring B-Bodys.....:D ;)
Finish the Valiant. Can wait to see any finished Pics or a nice Video!

Keep up the Progress!!!!:burnout::blob:
