My father in law had one of those, it went well over 300,000 miles before I rebuilt the head on it. Then my brother in law had it for a year and it went to the salvage yard. He doesn't know how to check oil!

Sounds like we have the same worthless,useless piece of camel dung for a Brother in law. My half sister and her husband are the king and queen of moochville. I would like to have a dollar for every car or other item that has been given to them to help them out. I don't know how many cars alone they destroyed by not checking oil or just keeping it up. I am not for abortion but in his case post birth abortion would be a good way to fix him.

I feel the same way... A city bus should run over them then back up to make sure it was done right!

Not a bad looking Valiant

First car I had was a 64 valiant same setup 225 six 3speed button shift.
That little car did good on gas but it had a thing about sticking in 1st gear every morning.

Used to have to get it up to around 35 - 40 hit N cycle the keyswitch and punch it into D.
If I remember correctly those little cars will hit 60 in 1st if your pissed enough

Cool car Jeff good luck with it.

Good looking Valiant...

My first car was a 63 Belvedere with 318 and torgueflight push button. I had more fun hopping it up and got in more trouble with that car.

Enjoy...

That blue car looks like a Dart with a Valiant front end. I friend of mine had a Valiant in high school, I think it was a '64, but the rear end and tailights were very different from that car.
