Great idea memike!! :cheers:

Here is my 66 Valiant. It only has 45K miles, and its only option is a 3.23 geared 7 1/4. Radio delete, you name it. I think for now its gonna stay a slant, but I have almost everything to replace the 3spd with a 4-spd, and I think I'm to replace the drums with a set of discs off of my 72' Dart. Subframe connectors, torque boxes, etc are all on the way also. Its a project, a very, very budget minded project, to give me something to do while I'm laid off.

Do What???? :dontknow:

I see another 66 Valiant like mine :cheers: Looking forward to your restore :happy10: I could not help but notice that you have barracuda grill inserts, My 66 as you can see is a V100 and slant six standard with an am radio and the grill inserts are different 8)

 

[metallidart]

Memike, I hope mine looks half as good as yours when its done! My grilles were pretty hazy and had quite a few dings, so I decided to be a little different and put some Barracuda grilles in it. Sounds like yours is optioned close to mine! I'll make a new thread when I get all my parts rounded up and I get ready to do some welding and sandblasting and painting.

 

[memike]

I like the barracuda grills, keep up the good work and start you a restoration thread so I can keep a close eye on it

 

[timbolia]

I like the Barracuda grills in there too. Would the front clip from a early Cuda fit on my 65 Dart wagon? (pics up a few posts) I have a 4 speed and buckets and was thinking of making it a GT Wagon, but a Barracuda Wagon might be even cooler. My candy canes and the driver fender need to be replaced anyway...

 

[waggin]

Yep,if you use all of the stuff it'll go right on there and the body lines will match up......

There are a lot of slants here more glamorous than her, but here's Natalie - running for the first time since being saving from a wrecking yard this past Spring. She's an all original junkyard survivor, a South Carolina car with 27,000+ miles. I've got lots of plans for her, but I want to preserve her as found appearance as much as possible.

Pardon my bad acting skills, I got a bit excited after she started. :-|

[Valleyant]

Hi,
I found this Valiant in '07 sitting in the parking lot of a foreign car repair shop...I bugged them about selling the car quite a few times and finally one day it was parked out front with a for sale sign on it...I rushed in and said, " hey......" they said, " Sorry, we lost your ph #, we'll sell it to you"! It's Slant powered (225) with power steering and cool color combo. Bought it with what I beleive to be 43K original miles. Runs great and gets lots of compliments. Fastest/quickest 1/4 mile 17.86 @ 75.32MPH with stock Holley one barrel. More pics later, Thanks FABO! great website!....nico

 

[grassy]

'75 Duster, 33k miles, all original except for radial tires and battery, original spare in trunk, no rust, small rips in driver;'s seat, matching numbers with build sheet..
