First a little history...
I have owned a A-body cars over 20 years.
Just can't be without one, afterall, i have not found a better car...
Almost 60 A-bodies i owned and several other cars, japanese and europeans, mostly driven in winter...(japan and european cars)
Also i have C-bodies, M-bodies, and Ram-van's.
For now, i met my wife 8 years ago and i tried to speak her to buy a Valiant...
'74, 4-door and 383 with 727 and 8.25 rearend...

First look, she tells me that she does not wan't the Valiant with the 4-door...
One hour later i get her to drive that Valiant...
Yes, she want to buy it!

8-years ago, and the Valiant is still her's and she let me drive it maybe once a month but not alone, she is always with...

We do little gag 7-years ago, we went to look streetrace event and we listed her to the race...
She goes mad, but she start to race, and after 17 starts she came to the pit and tells us she love it!

And, now , 2005, she's wondering where she gonna get sponsor to the next summer, and where she gonna get more power to the Valiant...

She has driven 126 race start and she want's more, she has won several trophy's and drive's almost evreything with wheels on...

And my 9 year old son, American car is real car he said...

Little conversation what we have lately; "why you are laying in to the soffa? i answered to her " i'm resting my bones..." she: "go to the garage and start fixing my Valiant, summer is almost here..." me: "ok"...
