Hello, my name is Kelly and I'm from Marana, AZ.

I recently got drawn in by an A-body ('72 2dr Valiant) so here I am. Never been an A-body guy, as I love the big C's, but have been reading the site and trying to soak it all in before I start asking questions. This appears to be a great site and I look forward to talking with you guys.

Unfortunately there isn't much to show at the moment. Stock 225/auto/7.25/9" manual drums car. It was hit in the front end and has had parts pirated for other A-bodies. I couldn't stand the idea of it ending up in a crusher somewhere (which is what most likely would have happened with it) so I had to buy it.

Here is how she looks currently...

I already have the inner fenders (?),a rad core support, and a hood from another '72 but need to collect all the other parts to finish here up right.
 
Well, I posted some pics but it appears it has to be approved by a moderator first? I don't get that but OK. :dontknow:

EDIT: Pics are showing now!
 
I see a nice red 72 2dr Valiant

Yep, a '72. 318 engine rebuilt with 9.25/1 CR with "302" heads, Edelbrock Performer 750 carb and intake, K&N 14" air cleaner assembly, electronic ignition. About 10 miles on the fresh frontend. Stock type rubber with KYB's. Rear has stock 8.25 rear with Mopar XHD springs and KYB's. I'm rebuilding a 727 to replace the 904.

The only things left to really do is get the body and interior squared away as almost all of the mechanical is done.
