I painted my '65 Valiant 100 a 2 tone
I thought I'd give my '65 Valiant a new look, the 30 year old worn out satin black paint job wasn't doing it for me anymore.
I sprayed it in the shop, and although I'm definitely no painter, I'm happy with how it turned out. If you get up close, it's a lot of orange peel, full of dust and dog hair, LOL. But that's alright, it gives this car some new motivation. A couple years ago I replaced the 170 slant (was running on 3 cylinders) and 3 on the tree, with a '69 318 and 4 speed (with a set of those rare Spitfire headers). Just need to redo the upholstery on the bench seat and it'll be good to go.
The last pic is how it was.
