I know - unobtanium. I know that Joe Suchy has been looking for NOS or a piece in decent shape, from which he can reproduce; but no such luck. (I did buy the B Body lower weatherstripping from Joe, I adapt as others here have done.) What have folks done to replace? Is there anything that...

This is advertised on eBay as fitting a 64/65 Valiant, but it looks a lot like the one on my '63. Might it fit? Could they be the same?

I've got a '63 Valiant V200 wagon. I'm looking for rear axle bearings and inner/outer seals for both sides. Can someone recommend a good source for parts? adTHANKSvance, Dan

Recently I had my local shop install an MC36221 dual master cylinder (per the recommendation from this site), along with new front drums, shoes and wheel cylinders. The car stops great - until the brakes warm up a bit. Then, I notice there's some pulling to the right, especially on a hard...

I'm looking for one in decent condition. Thanks Dan

I picked this up at Carlisle from a friend - he purchased it some time ago but never used, in the original box. I have a Pertronix in my '59 Fury, and I never have to touch it. Of course, they recommend you buy their 45kv coil (.6 ohm) to go with it to "maximize high RPM performance". How...

I recently bought 13" tires for my '63 Valiant wagon; more recently, I've been thinking about disc brakes for the front. Argh! They are only available for 14" and 15" wheels and tires. Plan B is to buy new drums and shoes, and a dual master cylinder (for manual braking). Has anyone done this...

We took my '63 Valiant wagon to Carlisle from Philly, and had a great time! The car ran great, although we had to run the wipers a fair amount of the time coming home... At the first red light off of the Turnpike followed by 476, the car stalled - just blocks from home. The engine would not...

Mine is missing. I have the slotted panel that bolts to the right side of the body, but I need the torsion bar itself (and perhaps, retaining hardware - I've yet to remove my panel to see what remnants I've got in there). adTHANKSvance, Dan

I could see that the header exhaust gasket was blown, so I dropped the lead pipe and replaced it. Still noisy, though - Ah! The previous owner installed a glasspak. Well, I'm not looking for performance, so it's gotta go - and I might as well redo the rest of it, while I'm at it. Any...

They need replacing. I put the question to Espo Springs n Things - they said: Before I order, can anyone confirm? Thanks Dan

I have the plate that bolts onto the right side of the body by the tailgate, but I’m missing the arm and whatever associated hardware there is. The parts manual diagram isn’t all that helpful. Does anyone have decent pix of this area?

Ain’t nobody got ‘em, as far as I can tell. Does anyone know different? Richard and Kathy Schneider (Rubber Seals Australia) *plan* to make them, but they’re still in the tooling process. What to do for my ‘63 Valiant wagon? Dan

Every supplier I've searched offers a speedometer cable like the one from ATP Automotive (first attachment) - a twist nut on both the speedometer end and the transmission end. However, my '63 Valiant station wagon has a cable end as pictured in the second attachment. There's a lockdown...

4 door sedans and 4 door wagons share the same doors, according to the parts book. Does anyone have a source for the seal for the rear door quarter window? Dan

The rubber grommets on the 4 corners of my luggage rack appear to be in good shape, but the rubber cushions under the fore and aft transverse rails are missing; the others are deteriorating. A rare item, I know - but is there a source for these? Failing that, what have folks done to replace...

The tire size on my ‘63 Wagon is P155/80R13. I’m looking to replace them - is that the correct size, or should I go any larger for a 13” wheel? Dan

Is there a vendor that makes reproduction door panels for A ‘63 wagon? (I assume the back doors on a wagon are different than a 4-door sedan.) Failing that - is there a vinyl supplier that embosses like the material in my photo? I know the embossing is interrupted below the black belt line, and...

I have a ‘63 Valiant Station wagon. The hinged lid on the spare is plywood; I assumed it was a replacement for a rusted out panel. I asked John Fowlie (Big M Automotive) if he had a replacement panel. The two wagons in his yard have plywood panels as well! Could plywood have been standard...

Greetings, I finally found the Gen II wagon I've been looking for. I took delivery today! Along with it, I received boxes of parts - some of which I don't recognize. Can someone tell me what these are (were) for? Also - if a 170 cid /6 was still an option in 1963, how do I tell if I...

Something in #1 or possibly #2 condition, 1963-1966, Dart or Valiant. Pushbutton automatic preferred (63-64), but column automatic OK. Preferably a slant 225. Location in the Northeast a definite plus! adTHANKSvance, Dan

Admin, please advise if this is not permitted. I live in the Philly area, but I’m looking at an A Body wagon on Facebook Marketplace in the Nashville area. If I can obtain the seller’s permission, is there someone in the membership nearby that could inspect for me and send additional...
