1969 Valiant 4 door
Hey everybody,
Just wanted to stop by and say that firstly I am not dead and neither is the car. Life and weather have been affecting my ability to do the project. (also another car got in the way too). So now since the weather is back and my health is somewhat straight I can start working on the car again.
So here is the start. Firstly working on a a disc brake swap. Got a pair from a 1974 duster or dart, can't remember cause got them last year. So starting on that as a first major project. Also going to qa1 upper and lower control arms with this as well. Then just other stuff in that too.
Motor has been delayed as the block i bought last year is a dud. So now sourcing a different 360 to put in the car. Might end up just going with a LA instead of a Magnum but it all depends on what I find. On that note was able to get some rust repair done on the engine bay last year but need to go back and do more.
Rear end is currently getting worked on as well. Getting it sandblasted and powder-coated. Then have to rebuild my dif. A project I am thinking about taking on myself. Just to learn how to do it that stuff.
So that I where I am at and have a few pictures as well. Thanks everyone!
