I still have quite a bit of work left to do to get my Valiant where I want it but I’m so happy that I’ve made it this far!

@ChrisRomello, I don't know where to start. First, AWESOME ride! Is that a 69 Barracuda gas door? whoever frenched that in did an amazing job. Is it on bags? I think it is really cool that you did this to a beautiful more door car. I love the color. I like the wheels, too. What are they? Great job.

That is one of the nicest 4-door Mopars I have ever seen!

Just daydreaming on what my take on it would be. (Bucket seats, console, manual shift, Barracuda Formuls S grill...)

Not taking anything away from your car.

Its absoutely beautiful!!

Cheers!!
 
Very Nice Chris, Grandma would be very proud.

That's a fuel door from a new challenger
 
I would call your car a "Modify" not a restored. I little too low for my old ***, but a nicely done job. I'm from your neck of the woods, maybe I'll see it one day. Looks like you are missing a rear plate. If you have a photo or details of it, maybe someone here may have one.

I have the rear trim piece, I just haven’t made the time to polish it like the rest of the trim. It not in the best condition and it a lot of work! I put about 12 hours into the grill alone to get it where its at! I am looking for another rear panel in better condition if I can find it!

The fuel door is from a modern challenger, it IS on bags, and the wheels are from Detroit Steel Wheel 18”x8” 4.5” backspacing on the front, 18”x9.5 5.5 backspacing on the rear with a mini tub.
 
Don't know what you have left but what you have now should take home some trophies. If not the judging was fixed .
It's not all about trophies, though it is to some. What I enjoy most about car cars is when people can relate to your car, with their experiences. I remember those cars, I had one, wish I had one, my friend had one, ect. It's all about the stories.
