Yes after she told me the engine was blown up.You offered her $500 and she agreed, then you get there and offer her $300?
Great looking car by the way. The decklid and hood made a huge difference.

I had to jump in here and say Congratulations, a great find, front and rear never got hit, those 63 tail lights and other trim is tuff to find. Enjoy some windshield time and drive her, love the 63 look front and rear, more doors are getting called crew cab now in some circles.
Nice job getting it road and fun worthy.

Another vehicle to make road trip memories in! Glad it didn't go to pieces. Enjoy!
Not a dent in the car anywhere !
Nice ride for a few hundred and labor, just like my first Valiant. So funny she didn't even bother to take a bag and remove the trash and give it a simple vacuum but asked $3k.

I've been working on this Valiant trying to get it road worthy !.
Got new rear tires and a pair of 14" wheels on it today !
Then I opened the can of worms on the front ball joints. Gonna turn into a full front end rebuild. But I have most everything I need on the shelf !

Doing some brake restoration, needed all new lines , M/C , changed it to a dual master and distribution block.
Was grinding off the Pizza Logos of the hood and deck lid. I ask Theresa why she always gets my bald *** head in the picture.
So she fixed it ! LOL.

It's MANDUSA!!!!!
Pulled all the front suspension apart yesterday & today. Bought some lower ball joints. Mevotec.
Just about to wrap it up till I found they have 9/16 bolt holes instead ot 1/2".
Drilled out my knuckles but couldn't find any bolts local. . Amazon to the rescue ! Be a couple days then back at it.
I had newly rebuilt upper and lower control arms. Some 340 T bars to go in.
Kinda nice having parts on hand , just grab & go back to work.
Came to a screeching halt with the 9/16" bolts though. 9

Nice work Al! Glad to see you working away on it. Put those skills(and parts) to use! 
ACE is the Place to bend over ! Ouch, $38 for 4 bolts & nuts. But hey, Got em and back at it .
What is the procedure steps on sticking the T bars back in.
With the LCAs hanging, adjusting bolts backed or what ?
Doing it once would be nice. Any advice ?
