    Disc conversion using 13 in rims?

    Bill don't think that is the case with the 13" wheels-- the bigger caps are 14" wheels & the diameter is close to 10" for the dish-- the valiants I had all had 9" diameter wheel centers & most dog dish caps fit without any issues, Lawrence

    Disc conversion using 13 in rims?

    I don't think the 13" will clear discs-- even the scarebird conversion-- most 14" rims will & the dog dish works on them, Lawrence

    1961 V100 on eBay

    the interior looks nasty, terrible way to cover it up the way they displayed the car. That alone brings the price of that car down, judging soley on that display I'm sure the rest of the car is not as clean as the seller tries to portray. It's a toad for Pete's sake. Lawrence

    early A steering column

    one caveat--- do not cut the wiring-- the harness connections might be different between 66 & 65-- you have the necessary parts to make a good column-- really what you need is a 62-64 push button column-- it will have no selector levers & such for your ride, Lawrence

    62 Valiant tire size options?

    I ran 235 or 245 /60/14 on the rear of a 62 valiant with no issues once I installed new leaf springs(old ones would cause tire rub on bumps) There is a lot of room on the rear of those things-- much like a duster. Lawrence I believe 205/70/14 would rub on the front in a tight turn./

    63 dart tranny cooler lines?

    that would be correct, the early cars had a large metal filter , you might see if one of the tubing companies would make the line without the filter-- would be much easier & possibly sell more of them, Lawrence
