A well-known topic. Maybe there will be news or sources in 2023. A friend is looking for a rear window seal for his 66 Valiant.

Hello I have a 74 Slant Six Valiant engine that I want to put in a 71 Valiant. The original 71 engine is already out. I see that the oil pan is not quite the same, but the difference is not very much. The most noticeable thing is that on the 74 the drain plug is on the side. Has anyone ever...

Slant 170 Val with the A904 Since we got it, I immediately noticed things: For example, when you put it in reverse, it immediately makes a dull sound (like someone hitting an empty oil barrel with a rubber hammer). :eek: The car shifts hard and jerkily. It is not only clearly noticeable, but...

I could possibly have an A833OD from a truck for conversion into my A body. The tailshaft of the truck transmissions is longer. Is it possible to exchange the tailshaft of the A833OD transmissions, for example a spare part from an A/F Body A833 or is the transmission rather worthless for me...

Hello all. I would like to convert my 65 Val with 273 to manual transmission. My favorite would probably be the Dakota transmission or an A833OD. With the 833, it would of course be cool that it is plug and play :) Since these are very hard to find here in Switzerland, I have been looking...

Hello, we have a 71 Valiant. In Switzerland it was still built with the 170cui Carter BBS at that time. Number is 4930S Since we have it, the problem is that it runs only in fast idle. As soon as the choke is open, it no longer idles but stalls. The colleague then recently overhauled and cleaned...

Looking for this middle steering wheel cover in green

ISO these parts. 2x Retainer, 2x mount.

Hello My father used to be a real Classic Car lover and had a lot of cars. After he had none for 23 years now and had seen how this hobby inspires me and saw my restorations, he came into consideration to get a Classic Car again. After a long search, someone from our Valaint Club came forward...

Im in search of this Trim for my 65 Valiant Wagon

So I have a 65 Valiant with the 273 engine and 3 speed column automatic and power steering. I would like to switch from column automatic to manual 3 speed columnshifting now. Does every 63 to 66 manual speed column fit or is there a difference between power steering and manual steering? Do I...

Hello. Greets from Switzerland. I have a '65 Valiant Wagon with a 273 engine. From the factory an A904 automatic transmission is installed (column shift). But since I don't like automatic transmissions at all, but I love column gearshifting, I'm thinking about converting the car to 3 gear column...

Hello. Unfortunately I made a mistake and broke my front glass of my 65 Valiant Wagon. I can only measure it inaccurately, because one edge is just hanging on the foil. Does anyone have the measurement data for this? For example in the middle from top to bottom and from left to right? I guess 63...

My best friend needs for his 61 Lancer the following parts: - Windshield Washer Bag "Jiffy Jet" - Gas Cap - Headlamp / High beam frame - Tie rod ends (60-61 fit only!) - Lower ball joints (60-61 fit only!)

Hello... For my 65 Wagon I need almost every weatherstrip, seal... of the rear area/tailgate . Is there a good website where you can find suitable weatherstrips? Especially the run for the window would be essential. What about mouldings?

A somewhat specific question. I got my (first) 65 Valiant wagon half disassembled. Never had a wagon before. Now I have noticed that apparently an intermediate piece of the rear seat is missing. It is this panel to fold down. The piece can probably be re-manufactured with wood and then simply...

65 Valiant Wagon I am looking for the intermediate piece /bezel of the Tailgate window crank as well as a lock cylinder with key. I can't find anything on the Internet. 64 works too I guess... If I have to, I'll take the complete crank kit.

Hello, everybody. I've been wondering for a while why my wagon project is different from the others. If that's true... As you can see, the windows at the back are different and the rear is not the same, but steeper. The car is a 65 from Switzerland and was also produced here. The Swiss...

Hello, everybody. This topic has certainly been discussed before, but unfortunately I did not find what I was looking for. How do I remove the wiper switch button and the light switch on my 65 Valiant without destroying it? In the end I also want to take away the longish chrome emblem. I didn't...

I got a problem. For hours I have been trying to remove the left manifold from my 65 273. As explained in the book and video, I have removed everything before (brake booster, linkage to transmission, exhaust pipes and braces. But I just can't pull the manifold out. No matter how I turn it or...

Does anyone know exactly why they stopped producing the wagon in 1967? Would it be great if someone had a report, a statement of reasons, a newspaper article or something? This was certainly communicated (at least to the sellers) and certainly with a reason. I like to read about the history of...

I'm looking for a trailer hitch for my '65 wagon. I don't think there is anything official online for our cars. Maybe someone else has a made one lying around?

My buddy and I are thinking about buying this Swiss Barracuda. A well-known one wants 2000 for it. (For comparison: A well-preserved, rust-free Barracuda costs between 15k and 20k in Switzerland. We do everything ourselves, but we probably don't have any repair sheets and would have to form...

Hello everybody I have now exchanged my golden 68 Valiant 170cui (see picture) for a 65 273cui SW. It came to this by chance :) How it came to this The golden Valiant, originally belonged to a guy who owns about 30 Swiss Barracudas and Valiants. Most of them have been standing around for...

Hello, everybody. I have a 65 Valiant SW 273. It has 9 inch drum brakes and a brake booster. I would like to convert it to a dual-circuit brake system. I already had a 68 with a dual-circuit system some time ago, but without a booster. Is it possible to use the same wheel brake cylinders and...

Greetings from Switzerland! My 69 Valiant 170cui has 4 drum brakes (9 inch) without a brake booster. I would like to add a brake booster, because I might want to install the bigger engine at some point and I'd feel safer. Which booster do I need exactly? This is the master cylinder I have.

Hello Greetings from Switzerland. I have now almost completely restored my Valiant (/6 170cui), unfortunately I still have a problem with the fuel system. When I operate the starter it takes ages until the engine starts, or it doesn't start at all. When I pour gasoline into the carburetor...

Hey. I recieved these two barrel Intakes as a gift. So now I'm thinking about a carburetor change on my '68 Valiant 170cui. The original carb is a Carter BBS (one barrel) I read that the best and easiest would be to put a Carter BBD (two barrel) on it. But there are some different BBD versions...

Hey everybody. I ordered a restored Carter BBS Carb for my 68 Valiant 170cui. So when I compared it, I saw, that there is an additionally port on the new one, the original one doesn't have. What is this for? Thanks
