    My First A-body and my brother’s First Car

    Nothing crazy for it, but it’ll be a great cruiser once it’s done.

    My First A-body and my brother’s First Car

    Decided the best motivation was to get at it and start cleaning, and I wanted to see what other treasures were hiding (I knew of one in plain sight), so we got to work. Honestly alot cleaner than I anticipated. It will get the same treatment my 1971 Polara got on the floors, but it was alot...

    My First A-body and my brother’s First Car

    Had to get the ugly wheel covers off. Plus my brother wants body color steelies with dog dishes. Other side still has the full covers for now. As you saw above, the original seats were awful and I wasn't about to spend over $1600 on just material (SMS Fabrics was the only company that has...

    My First A-body and my brother’s First Car

    Some more initial pictures. Interior is in need of alot of love, but that is what happens when it becomes a chicken coop (or sedan?). Small holes in both floors, plan of attack will be neutralize rust and fiberglass it. Basic and original 318 2bbl. Was excited to see that it has the better...

    My First A-body and my brother’s First Car

    Now some pictures in the daylight. Obviously the money shot side. The not pretty side... It's a shame because this fender is otherwise solid. I did talk to a friend of mine who specializes in rusty metal and he thinks he may be able to get this banged out. Crispy underside, very original...

    My First A-body and my brother’s First Car

    No idea why the pictures didn't post the first time (stupid technology), but hopefully this better. This was how I first saw the car in Spring 2024. My buddy kept the SBP Rallyes but they look really good on it. Had a close friend help me bring it home (he knows how to drive with a trailer)...

    My First A-body and my brother’s First Car

    Thank you all! Now for the car: 1971 Plymouth Valiant. 51k mile almost all original 318 V8 car with factory power steering and A/C, but manual drums. Was stored in a barn in Lynchburg VA and had some small stuff (side trim, one fender emblem) removed, and someone had busted out the driver front...

    My First A-body and my brother’s First Car

    Excited to be part of this forum finally! I’m no stranger to Mopars, with my first one being a 1989 W250, but I have mostly dealt with 1980s Dodge trucks (I just finished a 2 year rebuild on a 1989 Shelby Dakota) and the last time I worked on a Mopar this vintage was 2021 when I took my 1971...
