If you decide on the Dart, please PM me. I would send you the cash plus a finders fee for the Road Runner.

Great job!

Over the past few months I have gone through some frustration and challenges as I'm sure many of you have as well. Tonight, I was pretty bummed about some things, and decided to check out what was happening on FABO. As I read different postings from various members, I found my mood improving...

Just learned something new, thanks!

I might take you up on that, the engine and tranny came out complete. It only needs new engine mounts and the carb should be rebuilt; the float started sticking closed the last month or so I drove it.

So I found something interesting tonight while I was removing 9 layers of primers and paints. An old repair to the bottom corner of the front windshield...done in lead! Maybe that isn't exciting to you, but it's my first find like this and I just think its cool. I attached a few pics for...

Here are some pics from the late night engine and tranny pull this past Saturday night.

;)

Actually, it is a Valiant front end.

Pulling the engine and tranny out either tonight or tomorrow night, will post pics!

Hooked up with a friends heavy-duty engine hoist! I will pick it up tomorrow and hopefully get the engine and tranny out this week! :)

That said it all for me. You offered to sell VIN tags to sell a car. So you don't do it yourself, and think that anyone who would is supid (sic), but then you suggest someone should do it with the car you are trying to sell? What else are you willing to lie about? I'm not crying, just...

At least the post fits the rules now. I don't know you, but that stunt you tried to pull before you edited your post tells me I won't ever do business with you. I hope everyone else on here heeds the warning too. That was not cool dude.

Too bad no administrators or moderators are logged in right now...

WAIT A SECOND! You are advertising a NON-A Body vehicle... You are suggesting an illegal VIN tag swap... REALLY?!? Where are the Moderators? I see several threads per week with guys complaining about this happening on E-Bay and NO ONE has said anything about this yet? WOW!

Just sat down after pulling the chrome, glass and dash. I will post some pics later tonight. My family helped!

Why settle for a 340 Scamp when you can have a 440 Scamp? hmm...

The Scamp was not just a Valiant, it was a 2 dr. hybrid of Valiant & Dart. Either way though, it was not considered a performance car.

Here are some update pics from work I did this afternoon. I wanted to get the fenders, grill and doors off, but also had time to do the trunk lid and engine bay wiring harnesses.

...nor are they green like yours are...hmm http://www.15q.net/tx.html This link shows the difference.

The metallic paint is not like a standard paint. It contains metal flake that "lays" a certain way depending upon how much air pressure you have on the gun as well as the speed and stroke direction of the gun, the angle of the gun to the surface, and the distance it is from the car as you...

Growing up in Kodiak Alaska, (just a few months work, then the engines sit the rest of the year - read fishing) I learned to run the engine @ idle, spraying fogging oil into the carb, then kill the engine while spraying. This will coat the intake, exhaust, and cylinder walls with a heavy oil...

I just moved from Auburn down to Arizona (it was down in the 90's today)! I almost picked up my Schumacher mounts while I was there, but I'll just have them shipped. Good to see a successful install, I started second guessing after seeing all the Darts and Scamps with scoops. I prefer to skip...

The question is simple, but I don't know the answer. If you have done it, please enclose a pic, and any recommendations or cautions about it. I am getting ready to dive into body work now.

I will be contacting you at some point to order a set of these!

Thanks for the link. I don't know how, but I had missed them up till now!

Jack it up and make it a highboy version...or better yet, put hydraulics on it and tiny wire wheels!

UPDATE: So we have moved to the Phoenix area! I am finally starting to thaw out ;) and we are about a month away from starting the teardown of the car. It has been our daily driver the last three months, (no A/C...110º+ temps...wife not too happy, but enduring well...) and now we will finally...

I think you'd be in more trouble if she catches you with Mr. Moser...

Check for a bad PCV valve. If the engine becomes pressurized because it is not working, this can work with the high rpm to force oil out of normally not leaking areas. Have you run it up while parked in your driveway and looked for the leak?
