Looking good! I like the lower ride height. My car sat a little lower and I drove it like a maniac! :steering: On your shifter....in my Stude, I'm using a gm column with a 727 trans. I had to make a doubled up offset lever on the trans itself, in order for the column detents to match the trans...

This peaks my interest. What trans options are there? I want a 6spd manual trans

Nice to see another Valiant in town! You'll have a nice one when finished

Has this car been seen since?

That looks amazing! I’m glad you’re stuffing a hemi in it. I want to come and look at it once you get it in the car. I just picked up a ‘64 Valiant 2dr HT 4spd car. I’m saving my pennies for a hemi swap into it. I’m doing a hemi swap into my ‘74 Stepside D100 starting next week. These things...

Looks great! Have you driven it yet? What model did the steering come from?

Thanks for the responses Do you have any pics?

The steering looks great. Did you think it would clear a clutch pedal?

Badass!! Please post up about the steering stuff.

I wanted to run this contour setup to elimate the engine driven fan. My little 273 needs all the help it can get! Lol. I might have to look at that as an option

Thank for the reply. I think I'm screwed though. My little early A is tight in the engine compartment. I think it will fit width wise but, the depth..not so much. Looking up specs it looks like the radiator and contour setup is about 6 1/2ins deep. I half a little bit over 5ins from the core...

Nice!! That's one of the best feelings...when it moves under its own power for the first time!

I love your build! I'm stealing some ideas for my '64 Valiant. I'm having cooling issues right now. I read about your radiator/fan setup. I'm going to start collecting the parts to replicate it. I didn't see what radiator you're running. Is it a champion? What part number?

Nice! I'm super interested in seeing this thing move under its own power. I like the weight of this driveline and the power output with a turbo. I was telling a guy at work about this setup. He said 375-400 at the tires is a good ticket getter! Lol He has a 331 turbo'd SB '68 Mustang. I'm...

Any updates?

Awesome idea!! I've thought about this type of a swap after reading about SRT 4 swaps. Thank you for posting all the tech and parts/part # used. I think it's going to be an amazing ride when finished!

Been in here for a min or two. I'll be hunting for a '68 Dart late next year. Keep up the good work. We need some better overall shots of the car

Beautiful car!! I want my wheels back! :lol:

Damn nice work! I have a '68 vert myself. You are on your way to a very nice car when you're finished. What are you dipping the parts in to strip them?

I like your build. Love the color. How much did you narrow that 8.8?

Nice car. I love the color. I'm jealous of the fact you can drive yours.:glasses7:

I like this! It's turning out nice for a low budget cruiser. I must have missed but I didn't see you post your wheel widths. I would like to see if I can get those under my `68 Dart convert.

Nice car!! :glasses7: I love the updating on the build or re-re-rebuild thread. I am torn on the spoiler as well. Paint it body color put back up there and show us. I really like how much the car has become part of the family. I have a `68 Dart convertible that is a mess. When I am able...

Nice car! :glasses7: You have come a long ways with it! That looks like a ton of work to even get this far. I have a 68 gts clone convert as well!

Stitch welding is the only way to do sheetmetal. I have found that by starting the weld on the thicker material and pulling the weld puddle on to the thinner material works best. What brand of welder do you have?

Bitchin build!!:headbang: I love wagons! That truck is very cool as well! What about just building a small bulge on the hood to cover the pulley and not be soo noticeable?

That thing looks awesome!!:headbang::headbang::headbang: There is a straight 2wd `73 clubcab wideside shorty that popped up for sale around the corner. It's cheap and I am broke beyond broke right now:pale:

Nice!! I want the plates off of it!! Black and gold! Perfect for my `68!

Bitchin truck!!8) I had one for 10 years. My mine was a `73 with an `82 front clip and doors. I took it down to the frame rails and back. Fully caged and custom bumpers. I sold it 4 years ago like an idiot!! Here is a pic of right after I got it finished.... I wheeled the crap out of...

X2! I don't know anything about the XFI and fast systems. But I would like to see them and the $$ they cost. There are cheaper ways to go the wiring (way cheaper!!:-D). Street and Performance, Auto Hotwire, etc, etc, can do harnesses for around 1000 or less. These will let you use all the...
