Just picked up a ’68 Valiant 100 from a guy who wanted it out of his yard.This brings the A body total to 11:happy7:

Hey guys, as every one knows by now we are building a 440 dart. I have seen a few times where the talk has said that their tires hit the fenderwell headers witha big block. What size wheels and tires are best to avoid this problem? I told him today maybe going with a 14 inch front and maybe thinner tires up front ant 15 in the back?? Any help here? We sure dont want to beat up our headers and dont want the public to hear them rubbing when he is trying to impress the girls.

I have a few transmissions I would like to learn as much as possible about them before I install one in my 67 barracuda.

First one is a cast iron case A-833 I was given by a (very good) friend years ago, it supposedly came from an early 70,s 340 duster (I never saw the car it came from so I don’t know?)

It reads: PP8333007 0449

0B164631

the next trans is a cast iron A-833 OD (at least I was told this when I purchased it).

Are the upper and lower trunk lid moldings the same. Is their a difference. Seems like the support brackets are different with single holes for the upper and a double hole set for the lower.

I was leaving a job today and stumbled upon a hillside full of old cars and a small garage out at the roadside that looked like a fix it shop with a parking lot so I say “Hell yeah!” and I pull in for a closer look.

I walk up to the garage and see a sign that reads “Open”, and another that says “Welcome” so I say to myself “This place looks cool.”

I see old chevy’s and fords scattered all over the place and I walk in the shop after knocking and the garage is warm with a torpedo heater kicking…

Looking for a 66 Valiant right side qtr., as full as possible, to replace a crumpled one on our school project car. Keep us in mind…could always us a whole 66 as a parts car!
thanks
