This used to be my daily driver, on nice days, until a wheel bearing in the rear went bad. It was middle of summer so I drove another car then found a more attractive project so it sat. It has a 225 with the 2 single barrel offenhauser intake and 3 on the tree. It was fixed up when I bought it, new top, interior and paint. The rust has bubbled out and the metal cable wad never installed on the edge of the top, but no rips. $1500 OBO, Charleston, SC 29412.

More pictures please, have you tried airing up the tires.
 
Front, rear, drivers side and the rust spots. I have to ask. the green on the floor is that moss and if yes, what condition are the floor pans?

Thanks
Art

The floors seamed solid when hit upon. As for the green, its either green from the sun or pollen. The carpet was damp though. When I bought this car pretty much restored. I believe there might be some fiberglass in the floors, it was under chassis coated so I'm not 100% that is true or untrue. The driver seat is missing 1 base, a piece of painted wood is there, I missed that one when I bought it. I have moved the car several times over the past couple years under its own power, but haven't started in a couple as well.

Signet what? 100 or 200

signet was V200 "deluxe" top of the line trim package. there was not a V100 signet. you could get a valiant in V100 (base), V200 (mid), and V200 signet (top). the convertible was only available in V200 and V200 signet trim packages. V200 signets were only available as 2-door hardtops and convertibles in 1963. 4-doors and wagons were only available as V100s and V200s.

at least this is how i understand it. please feel to correct me if i am in fact wrong.
