Hello A-Body Nation

I'm trying to help my best friend who helped me restore my Duster find his own A-Body project. He's partial to the 1967 - 1969 Plymouth Valiants. (More preferably '69) Not picky about motor, trans, interior or rear end. He's a professional restoration specialist by trade but shouldn't be a rust bucket.

Criteria:
  • Not looking to spend a fortune - project or roller OK
  • Complete as possible (i.e. trim and glass)
  • Should be mostly clean (minor rust issues OK)
  • 2 door
  • Needs to have title
Located in Minnesota so anything in the Midwest will be considered. Feel free to send over any links and pictures that you think might fit the bill.

Appreciate the help everyone!

67autocross thank you for the reply! The "rusty" 68 sounds like the more viable option. Would you mind sending some photos along with any other info you have about the car? Feel free to PM if you prefer.

...Looks to be roughly a 7 hour drive :)

Thank you again

I could get some on the weekend... I don't keep my cars at the house.
It would need to be completely redone as far as the body. Rocker panels, quarter panels, front fenders would need the lower patches installed.
It's not going anywhere so you can keep searching for a good one in the mean time.
What are your plans for the car you are building?

Thanks! I'd say it'd be worth some more pictures if you get the chance.

The project itself would be more dedicated to autocross (i.e. floor removed, fabricated frame, custom front and rear suspension) but it'll also see a good amount of street use. Just looking for a decent starting point with a car that is not too pristine but not too far gone.

Appreciate your timely responses
 
Funny thing is if I keep this car My plan was to end up putting a full chassis under it like you are planning. I was actually going to get a AWD one or drop the body on a GM cyclone truck frame...
 
67autocross thank you soooo much for taking the time to capture and upload all these photos. That is a little more rust than he'd prefer to work through at the time so he's going to pass. Again, appreciate all the time. I like the AWD idea - that's something out of the ordinary!

You get that thread going - consider me subscribed!
 
No problem! I really don't want to sell it but if I got the money now I would throw it at one of my other cars.
67-69 Valiants are killer looking cars....

UPDATE: Project found and safely home. Blue 1969 Valiant, slant 6, Wyoming car with a clean body. (Very similar to yours 67autocross with just a little more meat left on the bone)

Thank you for the help!
