Decided to move the progress of my 69 Valiant 100 four door sedan over here. I found the car locally on craigslist for $675, apparently it failed emissions last year because the carburetor was in bad shape as well as a couple brittle vacuum lines. On the phone the guy said $500 is what he would get as a tax wright off if he was to just donate it. $500 and a hand shake later, I drove the thing home. So far Ive cleaned and scrubbed the trunk, got a battery from a friend, swapped the carburetor for one in better shape, put the factory air cleaner back on, gave the car a well needed bath, and began to use a buffer on the very dull tan paint.
Overall the car is in pretty decent shape but could use a few upgrades here and there. The goal of this car is to have a decent reliable car for very cheap (as close to under $1000 as possible) and fix it up to clean original looking status.
