My son and I drove our fire department's 3000 gallon tanker thru the Independence Day parade, in Independence, Virginia! One of the best Small Town parades in the US. Have a safe and happy 4th of July!

x3! Can't agree more with the above comments. The looks of a 15 vs a 14 alone is worth the switch, but tire options is the biggest reason. Even on smaller bodied classics, the ride is improved, the performance, the looks, and if it matters- the street credit of the car. You can keep the original...

Cam Newton, quarterback of the Carolina Panthers, drove a lifted '99 Ram 1500 4x4 till he got T-boned last year near the stadium.

I'm holding up a lighter! Great job, and Merry Christmas to you too.

Welcome to FABO Jonathan. The short answer is no PS, can have PB. Take a look at all the cars in the big block thread.

I'm 95% complete on my '73 440 build. This is a "what if" car. I want to make it look like a car that Dodge could have built in 1973.

I'll just jump to the better numbers... 318, 383, 440! Welcome to FABO!

I agree with Wheels, plan on painting the exterior all at once. Sanding, priming, and jambs can be done a panel at a time. Prevel (I think) makes a small aresol kit that you can spray your paint, a little section at a time. Great for all the small areas, and will let you get used to how the...

You guys rock! Thanks for all the great information! I am going to go look at what he's got in the next few days. I am not sure if I can / will use the setup. If I can buy it right and decide to not use it, I will post it here for you guys. What do I need to look for? I will make notes from...

I've found a guy who has a 273 2-bbl, 4-sp trans, and all the components (including the steering column) out of a '65 Dart for sale. I'd like to buy the package for a future project, but not real sure what it's worth. I haven't looked at it yet, so I don't have any pictures. I have tried to...

Gears and carbs!

Welcome to FABO! Looks like you've got a great project ahead of you. Remember... 1 part at a time, and you'll get there (at least that's what I tell myself!).

Ok, it's official! I'm the proud owner of the Valiant. After inspecting and driving it for a few minutes, it turned out to be even better than I originally thought! I'm going to start a new thread on it in the coming days. I want to thank each of you that chimed in on this topic. It really...

Welcome to FABO! Congrats on the new addition.

All that and no pinstripe? Dang, it almost had me!

You all will have to tune in tomorrow after 2:00est to see what happens. I'm meeting with him around lunch time. I wish you could see it. It really is a solid car and everything works! Cross your fingers...

I agree. Starts, runs, stops and clear title will equal a quicker sale at a much better price.

See! I told you salads were bad news! (blame it on the salad and it'll give you an out for eating hamburger steak tonight!)

What's the going price for a set of road wheels these days? Price difference to a set of Magnum 500's?

Thanks guys! It has already been converted to LBP and disk up front. That adds alot of value for me. If it goes thru, you all will be the first to know. Good info on the engine. I didn't think 66's had electronic ignition. Two pumps and started right up. Looks crappy = No bondo cover up...

Welcome to FABO! I think you and your son have made a great choice. You'll find that a Dart can be easily upgraded and will give reliable service. Take a look at members Darts, and their build threads.

Good looking waggy! Welcome to FABO!

This is exactly why I came to you guys! Thanks for all the info. I want it, but I have to be in it safe this day and time. If I end up with it, should I (a) try to find a 273 and manual, (b) leave it like it is, or (c) put a plain 318 auto in it? Stock, driver, or street? might be a better way...

It was recently driven on a 3 hour trip with no problems.

I've got to eat! I'll try to post another shot in a few minutes.

nice complete interior, radio delete plate in tact. Thanks for the replys. I'm excited!

It did! Entire body seems to be rust free, except for minor surface rust. Comes with a set of road wheels and likeI new white lettered BFG's. Also comes with the SB v8 hugger header for drivers side.

Let's see if this works...

I just found a 66 Valiant 100, 2-dr post, factory 318 manual (now slant w/ auto), very solid body, good interior, original 2-tone blue paint, radio delete plate, and can drive it home!! I really need your help today to determine a close value on this car while I'm in town. I will buy it, if...
