    225 Slant 6 Plymouth Valiant - 1970

    225 Slant 6 Plymouth Valiant - 1970

    Bought the Valiant real cheap to have it as a daily driver and planned to put the Valiant front on my 73 Dart Swinger and put the Dart front on the Valiant. But I have fell in LOVE in my Valiant and especially because it has a 225 Slant 6 (Still in love in my Dart and the V8 too). Don't think...

    Here are some of the progress I've been done lately. I managed to stretch the metal with a hammer and dolly so the dent went outwards. The upper support on the fender was so rusty I made new ones. I made fender patch panels to both sides and the lower support behind was also...

    Here are some updates on my rust repair. A repair made of a previous owner. This is how it turned out. I made a tool to make a recess for the U-nuts on the inner fender. Battery acid had made this area rusty. In this picture you can see how the bottom...

    I agree with you it became much better. Here is another picture before and after. Have cut down the protruding rusty tailpipes in the second pic also. Think that became much better too.

    Thanks for the comments. I have mounted a trunk lock. Something is missing. We try to cover the hole with this thing then. Maybe too long for my taste. Looks way better than the hole.

    Thanks! Find some more pics from this winter. The console became very nice I think. Cleaned it with mild cleaning product then used some metal polish and vinyl care. The console had been in the trunk for at least 2 years.

    Today I have replaced the wiper pivot gaskets. Pretty straight forward job and it's feels good to come one step further to get it waterproof. Now it's the drip rails left to get the interior water and rust free. Bad shape. Maybe time to replace? The other wiper pivot had a different...

    That was a good idea with a extra ballast. The "Hazard" button was of so I got a donor column for free that I used to repair my "Hazard" button. Made a puller for the steering wheel to take the column apart to salvage the parts I needed. To repair and replace the damaged button I was forced to...

    The firing order was sorted and now the car started up. It did not run right so a I took the distributor apart to check the pick up clearance and it was way off.
