Hey Jayson! Don't know if you remember meeting me or not. I'm Alan's (ddartdude from Florida) son. We met at Continental Lanes about a year and a half ago... when I was still building Neon's. I finally found a deal on a clean Valiant, so here I am.
If its ready this year it'll most likley be under slant-6 power with the original 225 powerplant. I may go that route for now since the 273 that will be going in it is at my Dad's house and won't be up here untill August. I've still gotta get a LBP disc brake setup, and buy some LBP axles for my 8-3/4 so I can put my Torq Thrust II's on it. I also need to paint it before I swap the rear end into the car... I don't want any overspray on all my new Caltrac springs and bars.
Stock slant six car with Caltrac rear suspension set-up... a little bit overkill. lol. Maybe I'll just turbo the slant... hmm.
Thanks for the welcome everyone, and the comments on the car! Kinda fuels the ambition to get her together and running.
