64 valiant

[pa formula 78]

I have been reading some stuff here for the last year or so. Here are some pictures of the 64 valiant that I talked my dad into buying a few years ago. The car has been in storage for the last few years till we get around to actually working on it. The car has a mildly built 360 and an 8 3/4 rear under it. We really have not driven the car yet, but have started getting it ready to move around. We will probably start working on this a bit more next year, once my dad is finished messing with his 77 volare, and I get my 65 mustang fastback in good running order and 78 Firebird in epoxy.

Anyways here are a few pictures of the car.

As you can see the car needs a really good cleaning, and the interior is pretty much shot. The car is going to need a new radiator. Anyone have any recommendations on a good replacement radiator.

I have a 22 inch rad for sale, in the for sale section. Needs to be cleaned/pressure checked though. Nice stance on the valiant.

You can go a few ways with the rad. You can go custom and get a 19" aluminum radiator, cut the core support to make room for a 22", or recore the old one. I went the last route. Went from the old 2 core to a modern 3 core. Made a world of difference in heat management. Cool car! I like the stripes.

Thanks for all the comments guys. I really like the stance on this car also. The plans on the car are to fix a few small areas of rust on the car. There isn't much, since the car came from out west. I will probably make a weld in a few small patches and it should be pretty good. The paint on the car right now looks to be household paint, and is not very nice. The plan is to strip the car down and just put a coat of dark gray epoxy on it and let it like that. Not sure if we will get to working on this car this year or not. I had back surgery a few weeks ago and can't really do much for a few months.
