    It was a quiet winter but with the exception of a few shakedown items and the FI which is 3000km away in my garage we are done. I will be going to Ontario next week with a project A100 and returning with the Valiant in time for summer. Thanks for your interest. If you have any questions on...

    A quick update. New roof installed. Shackles arrived finally. Exhaust in. Just doing some final odds and ends like throttle cable assembly, rear end alignment. Have a loaner 4bbl on for now until we run in the engine and maybe switch to FI over the winter.

    On the home stretch hopefully over the next month or so. Have a new roof to put on and get the seats back in - still sorting who is doing the covering. Offset shackles still backordered so can't finish up the rear end and align everything. Which is also holding up the exhaust install. Some...

    Haven't posted for a bit but we have made progress. Got the engine set, had to go in and modify the firewall, move the wiper motor and repaint. Everything fitting now. Transmission in place along with new tunnel re welded.

    Firewall a little different here than 64+. Need about an inch lower to fit. Thinking about it. Maybe a combination of lower and forward.

    Thanks, yes the guys did a very nice job on the paint. It is viper red, PPG with clear coat. Nothing too exotic but excellent job. Engine in the bay for the moment just for checking things. Only problem so far is interference with wiper motor. Although TTI headers not on so not in the...

    A bit of progress. Cleaned up and reinstalled what chrome we could. Headlight bezels almost beyond repair. Rear bumper has a few too many dents. Hood trim is on but really should be replaced. Grill came out better than expected. Need some new tail lights. So - about 60% of chrome...

    Some more pics from the body shop. The only holes in the body found above rear wheel. Out of the paint booth a few weeks ago. Colour is Viper adrenaline red. Need some advice on wheels - differing opinions from everyone. I like the rallye wheels but all chrome. Going 15" with large bolt...
