    The Great White Brick - '69 Valiant

    Thanks guys....thread on my van? Oh God that's another whole story too! I have a '65 A100, Tom now has a '66 A100 and another '65 window van he's putting a V8 in. I don't have the energy to document my van but it's a running project I guess you call it. Scooby doo green with Rallyes and a...

    The Great White Brick - '69 Valiant

    I will point Greg to this thread and hopefully he will update it sometime. It's his baby now. I'm emotional when I think of this car and the work Tom and I put into. It helped us become friends and taught me so much. It helped Tom get back into cars after a long hiatus and has now been a...

    The Great White Brick - '69 Valiant

    I personally sustained an accident on my Harley earlier this year in May. I was minding my own business and got hit by a car. I just about died. I got a broken neck and a badly broken leg. I was very close to becoming a quadraplegic. Anyway, 6 months later I'm doing better but still off...

    The Great White Brick - '69 Valiant

    I can't believe it's been so long. The Deviant got pushed aside. Tom and I both got involved in A100 vans which is great, but we neglected the car. After the paint job that went orange peel I think Tom lost his ambition on it. Anyway, somewhere along the line he decided to make it 100%...

    I'm almost sorry...............

    Are you proclaiming how great your car is, or are you upset that more people have other cars and can't relate to you, so you feel alone? I don't get it.... Personally I don't envy anyone's car really. Nice cars inspire me to get busy on my own and make it nicer! I'm an early A-body guy...

    NEW THREAD-Why we don't finish........

    I agree with everyone else, but there are obstacles you may not be thinking of... Tim Hortons - That's right, everytime I go to work on my car I have to go get a coffee, consuming a good half hour of my time and my money! Envious neighbours - That's right, everytime I go to work on my car...

    The Great White Brick - '69 Valiant

    Not much new, but the wet sanding is just about done. Busy with life and other stuff at the moment...you have to keep the wives happy and make some money sometimes! Can't Mopar all the time!

    Tara is a keeper! My wife is pretty good about the car thing, but she sure doesn't help out like that.

    Back to Basics....Project...1976 Dart Lite

    It's amazing how they welded that thing to the bumper! That's gonna suck trying to remove that thing...sucks to be you! :scratch:

    The Great White Brick - '69 Valiant

    Well the Dart Sport is sold, now we can get back to what matters...the Deviant! (and my '65 Barracuda that needs a lot of TLC since it got smashed in Oct.) The Deviant is out of its winter storage and back in Tom's garage. I spent the winter doing the steering wheel over, but forgot to...

    The Other 68 Dart Resto Project

    I just read this whole thread from the beginning....again. It's very cool! Your garage is about the same size as mine. I always feel like it's too small to do any serious work on my car (although my friend and I did change my motor in it last year), but you're proving me wrong, which is a...

    (For Sale?) Hello VIVIAN!! 1967 Barracuda Fastback resto.

    Awesome! Nice '67 Barracuda you got there. I can't believe that was your Dad's parts car! I like also like the decision to go with a 383 instead of the 273. Are you going back to Plum Crazy purple? Is Vivian your grandmothers name or what?

    The Great White Brick - '69 Valiant

    No! It's winter here, tons and tons of snow! I will admit that both Tom (the new owner who did the paint that orange peeled) and myself did get rather discouraged after the paint problems.....but we will get back at her! I recently bought a '75 Dart Sport that we fixing up....this is just...

    My new '75 Dart Sport

    It's so much fun finding a time capsule like this and getting it running for the first time in years! My '65 is in my garage, with the necessary parts gathering around it. Just need some motivation to take it apart.

    My new '75 Dart Sport

    Ya, it's the mystery holes in the fenders car. I was worried there could be someone in the trunk, but all we found after taking the rear seat out and climbing through was a set of wheels, jack, misc parts and some vintage store bags and flyers.

    My new '75 Dart Sport

    It's pretty good for a Canadian eastern car. The rear lower quarters and taillight panel have been replaced at some point, but they did a really nice clean job. The trunk pan has some holes and I think the front floor pans aren't the best either. The rockers, fenders, doors etc. are all good...

    My new '75 Dart Sport

    I found it about 6 hours away, dragged it home. The seller didn't think it had a motor/tranny and she said "you could stick a big 427 in it, that's what everyone is doing these days". Turns out there was a motor, but then she wouldn't budge on the price after we found that out! It was her...

    Everybody thinks I lost my marbles

    I see you've already got the slant 6 thermostat housing on your engine...is that what gave you this idea to swap?

    Everybody thinks I lost my marbles

    With all due respect, you obviously have too much time to kill. Find another car and fix it up, with your children or a friend or your wife even! Leave the beautiful working/running V8 Barracuda alone!

    Cool...sounds close enough to the original. What does a Dart Lite have/not have?

    Sparky's Swinger

    Hey man, that interior looks like my great Aunt's sofa! My buddy and I replaced the whole front frame in the Deviant project. I would do it again if we had to, caps suck. Go the extra distance and replace the whole frame rail and live happily ever after. Once you get all the mechanical...

    Jacks: 69 cuda fastback

    Nice looking Barracuda man....keep going and don't give up. That broken bolt looked like a pain the butt, I hate that! I broke off an exhaust bolt in the head just before putting the motor in my car, I was so mad. I went through about $20 in drill bits and finally had to call in an...

    That's awesome...nice! Unusual colours though, what do you call that interior colour, bonze?
