My 66 Valiant wagon

[abodybill]

Leaning tower of power.

V100 only option on it is AC and it works good.

The engine is .060 over,.100 off the head and cam installed for the 2 barrel it now has on it.

Got a nice 360 to make a stroker for it. and got the trans for it.

I know BB it well one thing stopping me is MONEY.

It's a Mopar and to me that's what counts.

That is sweet!

[69hemibeep]

[Roadcuda]

Looks good Bill! It's been a long time since I've seen one of those around where I am!

 

[roadrunnerh]

Very nice! You may get some on here who say, "it's not a two door, it's not a two door" (Ray et al.) ot:



Not me. That car is really cool. Even cooler after you hop it up......

My first daily driver was a light blue '66 Valiant wagon /6 push button automatic. It was a good little car. A stroker 360 in one of those little cars would be a mind-bender!

 

[Steve]

Would love to own that

My first one was a Valiant V100 2dr sedan with the 273,4spd,suregrip light blue or Plymouths name was Robin egg blue.
Was a fast car for what it had.

Fast enough I got glove box full of tickets with it!

I like wagons. A LOT. Two doors or four doors. Don't care. Wagons were some of the very best class racers back in the day. And I like certain four doors - Steve's '68 Satellite comes to mind. That's a neat old car. I just prefer two doors if it's not a wagon - they were what was offered as performance vehicles back in that era so that is what I like. No apologies. If you want to ride around in what were the most uncool cars when we were all kids, Harry, then knock yourself out... :haha:

Beautiful little wagon, Bill.
Love the fact that it has air. I'd like to have one just like it. :yesnod:

:jester:

Remember Ray, I came to my senses and bought a Scamp....passed on the four door V.

Duly noted - you brought up the 4-door bit - not me...

I think Chris has demonstrated a clear understanding of the vehicle air conditioning situation at Casa de ACME...

Maybe it's just me and my insanity, but I really like to see slant sixes in these cars. Everybody has a 340 or whatever... or is planning to change engines. They're the SBC belly button engine of the Mopar world.

I kinda like the slants myself. Different and distinctive looks with incredible reliability.

No doubt that the /6 is distinctive and INCREDIBLY reliable. :yesnod:
But I've always kinda been a Belly Button Man myself...

[abodybill]

Big John you are not the first person to tell me LEAVE that wagon just like it is with the /6 the way it's built.

I know that the way it's setup it runs perty good and if you can't tell from the picture look at the rear tires not the 13 inch like in the front.

This car's body has been in this shape since I took it out of Jacksonville,FL.

With the 21/4 inch exhaust on it sounds darn good.

You are not alone John, I like the /6's too! The '67 Valiant I had was a /6 car and was very reliable. And I could get between 18 to 20 mpg with it!
