I have a 1971 Valiant Sedan that I saved from the crusher. A co-worker was cleaning up his yard on some land that he recently purchased. Unfortunatly he pulled it out of the bush with a front end loader and a chain badly damaging the already rusted rear quarters. I also got some better front fenders which were also rusted and smashed. I got the slant6 running but has a rod knock, so a rebuild is in order. Most of the B3 blue paint has peeled off. On the plus side the interior is still in almost excellent shape due to seat covers. It is was optioned with 904 auto trans, power steering, large 225 slant 6, am radio, fender mount turn signal indicators and body side mouldings. This is my first Mopar apart from a '91 Dynasty that I've owned a number of years back. I will try to get some photos up shortly.

Allright, I finally got pics. Rebuilt engine, new tires, brakes, restored front fenders, painted rims, fabricated a new drivers torsion bar mounting bracket (old one was rusted). Still needs a new exhaust manifold, carburator and a windshield. She is finally up on her feet and running and driving.
