1963 is Back!

Post by slick »

My son turns 13 in about a month. He bought this 63 Valiant from my dad. At the rate I get projects done I figured we better pick this thing up now and get started :Thumbsup

Thanks guys. Motor and tranny are out of it now. There are in the storage trailer, but slant 6 pushbutton auto..Probably going to keep it mostly stock. Just upgrade brakes and probably go 4 1/2" bolt pattern. Plan to so a simple resto with no custom stuff.

Good eye on the Pete Gary. Not sure on the year. My dad has 3 of them. He fully restored one a couple of years ago. I think the yellow one in the picture and the one by the house are going to get combined to make one..
