Be very careful removing moldings from your car. Not much, if any is reproduced for these car in 2 door form so 4 door is even less.

car looks to be in fine shape ,what are the plans?
my advice for you is to write down your plan, then see what repo parts are available & then proceed.

Awesome thread. Keep up the updates. You aren't wasting any time on this car. Keep the 67 tail lights...they look much better than the later models.

Where do you live? I ask because unless you have access to some good sheet metal or hard parts, the work you uncovered in the unit body could be a deal breaker. Personally, if it where mine, it would be on the hook to a junk yard. Can't save them all.

I don't know how much you paid but unless you are in love with working with metal and very skilled at it...I wouldn't waste my time. I'd part it out and either save the good parts for another 4 door Valiant or sell them and recoup some of your money. That dash looks like its in great shape as well as the grille, upholstery etc. You'd be surprised at the strange pieces you could resell on these things.

For the record, I'm not a fan of parting out these things but sometimes they are just too far gone and should be used to fix up the cars that can be restored.

I kinda like the later model four door sedan ones!

They kind of have a 'custom' look them 'em!

Are they a direct bolt in to the earlier ones?
