That's what I was thinking too. But wouldn't there be water in the fresh air plenum because it stays dry. When I reseated the heater box and fresh air plenum I didn't see any rust or water leakage evidence.

This has been a problem ever since I got this 65 Valiant years ago. I haven't worried about it much because it needs new floor pans anyway. But this is just getting ridiculous. It's flooding the front floor pan and running all the way back to the rear when it rains real bad. When I got it about...

I ordered front driver's and passenger side floor pans for my 65 Valiant. The passenger side is the worst of the two even the back on the driver's side is totally gone almost. The rear passenger side floor pan is perfect. I don't know where I will get the rear driver's side pan hopefully one...

I had to fix my lower door hinge on my 65 Valiant 4 Door on the driver's door. It works good now. The lower plastic bushing was broken so I put in a bronze bushing and it's good now. I just knew it would be a pain to readjust the door when I bolted it back on. I tried to put the hinges back...

I've got my front driver's door off of my 65 Valiant 4 door. Because it doesn't stay open if you let go of it. It shuts back closed. It's annoying trying to work under the dash with the door closing on me all the time. I removed the door and it's sitting outside uncovered so I need to get it...

I've got a 65 Valiant 200. I'm planning on using it as if you can believe it a back up car. Basic 170, drums, automatic on the column, manual steering, AM radio, and a heater. I definitely don't want to dump a bunch of money into like I've gone way over on my Charger. Luckily it has most...

Will a 63 or 64 Valiant V200 front fender fit a 65?

I'm testing the wiper motor and replacing the wiper pivot gaskets while my dash is out. This wiper motor turns continuously but we couldn't get it to park and we took the switch off the back and nothing is broken and in fact the park mechanism does work. We just can't get it to power up doing a...

I've got a column shift steering column from my 65 Valiant. I wan't to restore it to at least a decent working condition. The pot coupling is seeping and needs a new seal. The parking cable housing needs to be fixed, it has a stripped bolt to the access hole. And I want to just touch up the...

Actually I didn't do it I just helped get the dash out. It was basically the start of removing the windshield. We used wood shims to pry up the rubber seal enough to get in a flex drill bit with the correct socket on the end and it took probably 15 mins to get out all the screws. It definitely...

I know this is hard to expect but I'm looking for a cheap windshield seal on my 65 Valiant 4-door for the front windshield. I've only checked EBAY and they're $100 with shipping. Year One doesn't carry it or much anything for a 65. I'm having a very hard time just finding a new windshield for it...

I've got the new Tan windlace/weatherstripping for my 65 Valiant 4-Door. I'm wanting to sand and paint the door jambs but hopefully without removing the doors. Because I've still not gotten my doors realigned after rebuilding the hinges on my 73 Charger. The only door that has a problem is the...

I went to check the weatherstripping more closely yesterday and it does look like the windlace/weatherstripping is one piece together. Is that correct? Year One says they have it even in the correct color tan but I think they may have misprinted the catalog because on the website it says it only...

Do I just give up finding any reasonable priced new door weatherstripping for my 65 Valiant? I see everything for the 2 door and convertibles but of course nothing for a 4 door. I'm not trying to get NOS or anything factory correct just something that fits right and works right like the...

My gasket is soft and pliable but the windshield itself already is cracked. That's why I wasn't totally worried about removing it because it's going to have to be replaced. Will a glass replacement company have a new windshield for it?

I have the factory 65 service manual. The instructions don't seem too difficult to remove the front windshield on my 65 Valiant. But doing it is different I guess. It's already cracked and will need to be replaced but I don't know if glass companies get a new one anymore. I need to get it out to...

I'm going to give the patch panel a try. I've got a buddy who knows how to weld on patch panels pretty good. And it looks like a perfect candidate for it as there isn't any damage behind that part of the fender. This car is going to be hard to paint anyway. The previous owner brushed on some...

What about the lower front fender patch panels? Do those look good welded in? I guess that's my only option if I want to keep it all 65. I'm only going for a driver quality paint job not one you're afraid to drive with. That's the only bad spot on the car that needs to be cut out. The trunk and...

Can a 66 Valiant front fender interchange on my 65 Valiant? I looked at them. They look the same but I wasn't sure about around the headlights because the grille was different on the 66. Will I be able to bolt up a 66 Valiant fender on my 65 without any modifications?

My paint code on my 65 Valiant is XX1 Y, which I decoded as Light Tan with a Gold Accent. But the previous owner went over everything on the car with some kind of gray brush primer. It may have even been house paint primer. He did the jambs, trunk, and rattle canned the engine bay with black...

That's pretty much how mine looks already. So I guess I'm ok. There's a few things I'm unsure of. I know 3rd generation B bodies mostly. But I'm still learning about early A-bodies. Mine has a washer tank on the front driver's fender. It looks like it could be original but I don't know if it...

I know it's not a muscle car or even a V8 powered Mopar but does anyone have any restored, or original engine bay shots of the 65 Dart or Valiant with the 225 engine just so I can see how everything should look under the hood of my 65 Valiant. I'm pretty sure most everything is there under the...
