Yep...definitely a Val Camino....I was thinking El Valcho for a second, but.....

AH! Scales!!

Looks awesome! You are going to go with big "fish scales" on the side right? ....I mean....it is a Barracuda....

The Hedman Huslers....true fenderwells...the Hooker "semi fenderwells" hit the springs. I don't have the part number handy but I believe there is only one application for a smallblock in an early A.

I would still use the 4 inch dropped axle if I were to do it again. The undropped axle sits too high in my opinion, and it still might end up needing some spacers. The 4 inch dropped axle worked fine with a little spacing, and you can use the stock steering box and k-member. Dropped steering...

It's still not finished, but it's close...just needs the interior, and some minor things. It has Super Stock springs on the rear, so no need for the ladder bars. It's more of an A/FX style car than a straight up gasser.

Or, you could skip all that and use a Speedway Motors kit, and have brand new front suspension, disc brakes, steering arms, and drag link, and even use the stock, manual, steering box, and K-member if you would like. The kit with the smaller mustang II brakes will work with most wheels, and...

Here is my build thread for my '64 Valiant: http://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/showthread.php?t=103721 I used the Speedway kit, and the link to the parts are on page three of the thread...

Here's my '64 Valiant....mostly stock..............Just kidding! 360/727/straight axle/9-inch/cage

The one for my '64 Valiant was under $200 installed, from the local "chain" mobile glass place....that was with my gasket and lock strip, and included the install of my rear glass, also with my gasket and lock strip....

Thanks! The Fairlane sounds like an awesome sleeper...must have been a blast! I have a Cleveland in that '61 Galaxie in those pics (and elsewhere in this thread), and although there are still a few bugs to work out with the car...it pulls hard!

Thanks! It sounds like yours will be fun. My clubmate has built three Slant Six powered cars. A roots-blown T-bucket, a turbo Model A roadster, and a multi-carbed rail dragster. All very fast cars.

Thanks!

It's a beast!

I got it home now...but I still need to do the interior, and minor things...

Looks great! Nice job. I have a 'glass one on my Valiant.

Nice car!

That giraffe skin top is tight....but it would clash with the monkey skin thong that I usually drive in.....

Thanks guys!

A video...but the sound doesn't do it justice...It's a beast! 302 Found

The hood is back on. It runs. The glass is being put back in today. I need to get the interior done, and a few odds and ends, but it's close.

Clicking noise like "pinging" from the engine? Does it only do it upon excelleration? Might try backing off the timing a little, and/or higher octane gas if it is pinging.

STANCE:

Thanks guys! The front tires are Coker Pro-Trac, 5.60-15, Bias Ply's....the rears were going to be Pro-Trac P 235 /60-15, Bias Ply's...but they are out of stock everywhere, as Denman went out of business, and Coker is having to have someone else make them now, and they have to do all their...

Getting there......

I bought a set of the 1964 Valiant ones from them, and they look fine. They were going for big bucks at first, but I ended up paying $50 for a set. Of course they aren't going to be as nice as some NOS ones....but not the $400 each that some clowns ask for a single NOS lense on there...

Breakstuff....here are the parts. This is the 4-inch dropped axle...they make a complete kit(brakes,spindles, and steering components), but I only see it with the undropped axle....They just don't look good that high in the front in my opinion, so the 4-inch drop is about right...even if you...

Yeah, I just found out today that the B&M flexplate and Holeshot converter don't line up. I called Summit, and they are shipping a new converter, and a flexplate to be sure, plus test fitting it at the warehouse to make sure they will work together...then having UPS pick up the original...

Oh no....I knew better than that! Plus, it had big red "Stop" signs all over it warning that if I mounted a tire...I owned the rim! I called Summit, and they shipped out a new one the next morning, and UPS picked up the damaged one the same day the new one showed up...No charge!

Whimbledon White....or however you spell it!
