IMHO the 69 valiant is the coolest looking Abody, one year only grill and the duster front end before the duster. plus light :) Not because i own one. I lovem all but somthing about it. i love a box on wheels. I would guess its probably one of the rarest Abodys now. No body saved them.

Excellent-I bet that's a fun little car to tool around in-looks sharp as a tack-I like it for the same reasons you mentioned above...1 year grille and the post cars just look good. That being said, I'd like to put a sharkstooth grille in my '72 Scamp like heaven did...think it would look good.
 
I parked mine for body/paint, interior, EZ wire kit and some other odds and ends about the time you started this thread. well I finally got it back on the road. here's a few before, during, and after pics for some inspiration for ya.
love your build!! -pauly

Pauly... Those wheels keep catching my eye man! They look damn good! I like all the other goodies too! That thing looks great. (Sorry don't mean to take away from the original thread here)
 
No big deal pauly! I dig your ride a lot. What's the specs on that small block?
 
early 360/380 magnum crate motor i got after blowin up the 340 that was in it when I got it. I have since found another 340 block and am laying the groundwork for that motor. just can't decide which way i want to go with it, i.e. centrifical blower or turbo.
 
Definitely a nice ride. Really like the way it sits. Now if I can get mine sit like that when I replace the rear springs....
 
Thanks man, it's just a 1/2 lowering block with some weird Afco circle track springs.
 
Donnie I noticed you've never had a Thanks so here'ssss one from your bud!


Haha... Thanks man!

Yeah I have been so busy I haven't frequented FABO like I used to. The body work is being done on my little Valiant so I haven't been involved with it much lately...
 
Parents got me a steel cut out of that Plymouth cut out for Christmas. Figured i could put it to use besides wall art.
