    A Body WAGONS-Ho! A body Wagon Thread

    Anybody need wagon parts? I have this left over shell for pieces. Quarters are shot, roof is pretty rough. Has a nice firewall, inner fenders, rockers, truck and floor boards. Doors arent terrible but need rust repair. Charlie

    Luggage Rack/Rear Air

    My wagon has both and I'd say a nice pair of deflectors would be in the $150 range and roof rack in the $150-$250 range for a nice one

    early A & front chassis stiffening

    I'm planning to move the shock tower extension leg inwards until it is flush with the inner fender and then spot weld that area as well. The 4 spot welds between the shock tower and inner fender are not enough. Charlie

    63 valiant wagon rear side glass seals

    I have a couple used pairs around. I have had luck reusing them by soaking them in paint thinner for around a half hour and letting them dry. Once dry, I would wipe them off with soap and water, dry again and then use 3m glass matting adhesive to secure them to the body. Glass mat is what the...

    Dart/Valiant wagon tailgate skins

    At the moment, I have no new news on the venture. I'm deep into metal work on the wagon so in the next month I will get my tailgate out, blast it and then start talking to the guy again who makes skins. Charlie

    A Body WAGONS-Ho! A body Wagon Thread

    That's my dad's wagon. That picture was taken in 1997 when he finished it. Believe it or not, it was daily driven and he racked up over 150,000 miles on it! Now it is time for a second restoration and the car will now be a weekend cruiser/fun car. I'm diving in this project over the next couple...

    Dart/Valiant wagon tailgate skins

    Good news fellas, I finally got a response from the seller and he would be glad to work with us! So, when I am home over Thanksgiving, I'm going to get a bunch of measurements off my NOS gate and send them over to see how accurate the reproduction is. If it is nearly spot on, well I guess...

    Dart/Valiant wagon tailgate skins

    If this deal works out, I'll post a picture-heavy write up on my experience with restoring the tailgate assembly. The other thing I am thinking about is the factory weatherstrip that ran along the glass for the tailgate allowed water to travel through the 'gate and exit out the bottom. I'm...

    Dart/Valiant wagon tailgate skins

    Well, I picked up that gate at carlisle 2 years ago on a Saturday afternoon. The guy was a big time NOS sheetmetal seller but didn't know what he had so...we got the benefit of the deal. My dad is prying at me to mount it on the car but I'm afraid to use it and would rather hang it on the...

    Dart/Valiant wagon tailgate skins

    I'm starting to think that the shipping would be astronomical even shipping 10 at a time. I may try making one my self using a steel brake and an english wheel this christmas season. Its a pretty simple panel besides the slight convex curve it has all the way across. Charlie

    66 dart with 360 ...what manifolds or headers?

    My father's '66 wagon has a 360 crate motor in it and he was able to fit the AAR 340 manifolds in the car. Barely but they fit. The passenger side was not bad but the driver's was really close to the shock tower and the exhaust was a trick to do as far as I remember. I'd probably do the under...

    Dart/Valiant wagon tailgate skins

    Found this guy on Ebay Australia who makes Valiant tailgate skins. Seems like every A body wagon has a rusted out tailgate so this may breathe new life for many of our wagons. I am going home from college this weekend to look at my tailgates and see what I'm going to do. I have an NOS...
