My '67 Valiant 100 Big Block 4 Speed Restoration

[67valiant 100]

I going to start this thread that I should have done awhile ago. I got my Valiant back in January 2010. Paid $300 for it. Original California, PP1 red, red interior, rubber mat, /6, auto, 7 1/4, 2 door sedan car. My plans for this is to put a 413, 4 speed, 3.91 8 3/4 drive train into it:burnout: It needs a full restoration. I have lots of pictures. Let me start off with what I had got.

4 speed parts & mock up just for hahas............someone butchered the orginal shifter handle:angry4:
P.S. the floor hump came out of a '67 Dart 383 4 speed, wait..........CONVERTIBLE:bootysha:

That Valiant looks to be a great starting point.
Keep up the great work and keep the pics coming.

Great looking project. I can see now that I didn't post enough starting pic's on my thread (3 generation ptoject). I was wondering what I was going to about the floor hump. 67 Dart that answers that ?. What did your peddles come out of?

 

[67valiant 100]

The hump can come out of any '67-'76 A-body and same with the pedals. I got the pedals in the conversion parts I got which included almost everything to do the swap ($450). I think the seller told me they came out of a '72 Duster.

Looking good so far man!! Next time I am in New Jersey, I will have to say hello to ya! I've been waiting for you to pop up a thread on this!:cheers:

 

[67valiant 100]

Ya Dartt I've waited too long to start this thread. These pictures or mostly from winter-spring. Next time your up this do say hello. I'm about 15 minutes from the Jersey border.

Thanks! That is my friend/boss's private yard with a bunch of A's, B's, & C's bodies. Most are rotten but good for parts. My car was the best out of them all by far.

i have an excellent complete grill and hood. PM me if interested. 67-68 grills are impossible to find. so far looks like a good project.

I got lucky and found a mint set on craigslist for $45. But yes other those I never seen a set for sale. The hood is a little ruff but workable. The shipping would be alot. Now if you had a passenger side full quarter that would be one thing as those too are impossible to find.

A-body 8 3/4 rear $300:cheers: The Valiant flying......priceless:toothy10:

Trunk lid from Carlisle Mopar car show. Being striped. I also got a passenger side door but I don't have a picture. Parts came off a '69 Valiant.
