1965 Valiant 200 convertible (minor project)
I also see a few things in the engine bay that aren't quite stock, like the air cleaner, some engine breather/CCV stuff, etc., but it runs good and I'm hesitant to start messing with too much right now! Maybe I'll tweak those little things along the way...one thing at a time.
Oh, it's the 225/6 and 3-speed automatic.
The next few things on my "punch list" are:
- find out why instrument cluster lights aren't working. I plan on checking the fuse today, and I've heard that the rheostat in the headlight switch can be the culprit. Also something about an extra ground?
- Get the steering wheel straightened up. The car rides nice, tracks straight and doesn't pull, but the steering wheel is off center. Drives me nuts!
- Get some better tunes. The crappy CD player and single dash speaker ain't gonna cut it.
Speaking of the steering wheel, it has the optional wood grain wheel. I'm undecided on getting it restored, wrapping it with a leather cover or just leaving it alone.
