LOL Yep, i did it again, found a Mopar and an offer i couldnt refuse Its a funny story too. last summer I saw an old couple driving around town in a pristine 68 valiant two door sedan. I had actually never seen one before and didnt know what it was exactly. I had seen the later Valiants and the real early ones but never a 67-69 type. I thought "man thats kind of a cool little car and its a post too, a little miniature post car. Bet it is light too, make a goood race car". Well guess what! No its not the old couples valiant but a different one i brought home today, definitely classifies as a survivor, its all original, everything is there down to the 4 hubcaps, original paint, original upholstery, even the original paperwork, build sheet and owners manual . I am now its third owner. it was owned by a couple here in oregon from 68- 97, then sold to an older woman that drove it from 97-01 and then parked it for the last four years. She advertised it and i was the first to respond.she kept me waiting a few days while her son hacked it out of the briar thicket it had been nesting in . She assured me it was in pretty good shape, and ran great when she parked it. Well i found out that it is indeed in great shape and i couldnt resist. she wanted 1200, I gave her 1000. I have spent all day cleaning it up and scrubbing it and it is in pretty remamrkaBLE SHAPE. Now i dont know what to do with it, i was gonna cut it up for a race car and stuff my 340 in there, but now i dont know what to do, seems a shame to hack up a nice litle piece of history. Its kind of a goofy looking little car in a way, but i like it. This is what it is: Its a 1968 Plymouth valiant 2 door sedan- slant six 225/auto with the Bronze metallic color AND A beige interior., runs and drives, im gonna put it in a show this weekend. well sorry for the lengthy post about an off toipic mopar but i had to share. Its not a superbird, but its all mine and its paid for. Neal Zimmerman, eugene oregon . . -- http://www.fastmail.fm - Email service worth paying for.
