1963 Valiant Wagon "Candy girl"
So with it in the shop on Jack stands, I got under it and really took a good look and examined very carefully and I'm happy with the lack of rust underneath. At one point it had some shag carpet glued in the interior and the glue seemed to strip the paint and encouraged some rust.
Now that I look its so strange that the rust doesn't seem as bad as I thought it was and I think some flat 18 gauge will fix it right up.
A previous owner put the 8.25 rear end in and had a V8 in it which is going out the door.
