I used later model Ford Falcon sun visors for mine. This is the start of a hard headlining I made for mine. I slightly moved the mounting point forward to have some metal to mount to.

Here's a couple of shots of my efforts. Won't be much Valiant left by the time it's finished! Quad cam V6 and O/D auto, 4 wheel disc's, LSD Ford diff, A/C, power windows, power R&P steering custom interior. Well it was just a rolling shell when I bought it! Marty

I think this would be the right thread to through this one in! A club member here in OZ has a 62 4 door with some extra trim pieces. I've only seen a few cars with them and reading on line they appear to have been for the Mexican market. Anybody have any ideas? I'm sure Slantsixdan will know if...

I'd build either if I wasn't in the middle of my 62 sedan build!

very cool wagon, only thing I've seen that I liked more was the 1962 sedan delivery, that's my biased choice!

I never thought I would be reading this but what a result!! The boys from Ramsey's deserve a medal, goes to show there are still good people out there, just doesn't seem like it at times! I'm so happy for you. Do you have a thread on your rebuild so we can follow your progress from here...

Found some more shots of this delivery van. Have a look at the swage lines through the centre of the roof and the shape of the edge of the roof above the gutter, totally diferent to sedan. I'm now conviced these are wagon based not sedan. I couldn't see anyboby makeing a new roof, tail gate etc...

I see what you're saying about the drip rail but looking at the back of the roof and the shape of the tail gate, I still think they are made from a wagon! It would be less work to change the drip rail than make a tail gate then make a wagon style roof including the overhang above the tail gate...

I'm in the early stages if a total rebuild of my 62. Who else on this forum has one and can post pictures? Interested in seeing what other have done! This is my mates one. 318 twin 4bbl gas carbs, custom trim, flame paint job (hard to see in this shot)

Hi all, thread coming soon, to busy working on the car! Also had a friend request, I tried to accept it but can't get the thing to work. Just PM me if you have any questions Marty

Yeah had bit of a ribbing about it but Mopar parts are big dollars here and fuel is over $6 a gallon so the little V6 makes sence. Standard they produce just on 270hp and with good exhaust cold air intake and remapping 300hp will still give 30mpg on the highway. Here's a few photo's of the...

OK I think this worked this time! Can't find my other pictures if the trial fit up but this will give you the idea. I was going to use the older GM supercharged engine but the rego guys said it was 41cc's to large!! So I'm going to use the quad cam engine and being 3.6Lt instead of the older...

I purchased a 62 Plymouth Valiant as a rolling shell and yes it had been for sale for years and would have ended up at the crusher. I have opted for a non Mopar engine swap that will offend some but the practicality of it was the appeal, a 3.6Lt V6 with 5 speed auto. While it's a GM product it...

This is the Ford Panel van of the same era. The Mad Max van is a General Motors offering. The Ford had 250 cu six, 302cu V8 and 351 V8 options while the Holden had 202 cu six, 253 V8 and 308 V8 option. The Chrysler offered 245 and 265 cu sixes and 318 V8 options, there may have been the odd 340...

This concept is giving me ideas! I'm building a 1962 Valiant and want a different concept so I've been online looking for all I could find out about the sedan delivery. Looking on www.flickr.com they look more like they were more a delivery wagon than sedan! Looking at the original wagons on...
