The car looks super. I like the small dog dish caps. Sweet!

just an idea, but to my mind it'd be awesome if you put spats on the rear wheel arches (you might need to rebuild the steelies with less offset).
i always wanted to put spats on my '66 'goon, but didn't get a chance (she got written off before the rolling resto was finished)

nice build man. wagons have their own sort of cool about them
Do you mean curb feelers? If so, I'm not going for that look. More of a sleeper under-the-radar-look. Lol. I have to be able to keep up with my group friends and their fox body stangs.. Ok maybe just the stock ones.. For now.
I didn't used to think so, but after I saw this one I changed my mind pretty fast.
The kick down cable came in today via usps, but push rods won't be here till Tuesday. Damn you FedEx! Haha

No, I mean the 'skirts' that go over the upper wheel arch:
and here's what they look like on (someone else's) Aussie ute.
lastly, our old 'goon, which i always wanted to re-do the 6" rims so i could fit them under spats like above:

Ohh I see. Those are pretty cool.

Maybe they were more of an Australian option?
I've never seen a set here in the US so yes, like the back window louvers as an option, I suspect that is an Aussie thing.

Was that Eddie and Daniel? I bought my 74 Dart off them about a year ago
I don't think that was him, his name was Dale.
Alright guys, I'm looking to trade my wagon (again) for something that I can drive every day reliably. Been looking into mid 80s dodge trucks with short beds, nice slant six cars, anything that will qualify for historical insurance (shh don't tell anyone) that is clean and reliable. The station wagon is a little bit too much of a project to be trustible everyday, and my valiant is no where near driveable yet.
Hey guys, I just got back from my first car show with my new ride. Its a 1964 Valiant V100 wagon with a 225/3 speed stick. Man Ive really missed driving these old cars..
Unfortunately though, an older guy in a 63 Furd Galaxy 500 tried passing me in the parking lot at the show and instead, hooked on to my bumper and twisted it with his wheel well... So I got his insurance info, and that was that. Still, I just bought it today and someone already ran into it. :wack:

Here are a couple more pictures in the daylight. The previous owner said the car was originally from the bay area of California, and still had the original black plates to show it!8) :-D
Awesome wagon! :glasses7:

one thing catches my eye on this wagon......like my coronet, it looks like a factory roof rack delete car.
i always thought that was strange about my coronet but looks like quite a few wagons im seeing came from the factory without that option.

I like it better without a rack personally, my old wagon I had to take the headliner out to weld the holes in. Lol

Just looked at the new wagon, nice ride Adam
Thank you Bob.
Had a new exhaust put on the wagon, also had the windows tinted. Oh, and got a new bumper to replace the tweaked one.
I saw this awesome wagon at a cruise here in town. Looks kinda familiar? He was a very nice guy thats actually owned the car since the early 1970s, and bought it locally. :glasses7:
Here are a couple pictures of my wagon a couple weeks ago next to my friend Mike's car, a 63 Dart 270 Wagon. Very nice indeed!!:thumleft::thumbup::thumrigh:
