Getting closer and closer. Brought another "car" home which will be in next video. Really pushing to finish this car before I get to work on anything else

Wow my dad's first car ever was a 1969-or 70 4 door plymouth Valiant. It brings back memories. I remember it had this A/c unit under the center part of the dash which I believe was a factory unit. Cool car!

Thanks this one is actually a 72 but is wearing a 68 grill because I could not fit the intercooler for the turbo behind the original grill

Zeth,
Did the 2-dr wagon project go by the wayside? You had so much metal work into that car.

Still slowly collecting parts for it but got kind of sick of continues body work on it so I bought this car to (get running) and things got out of hand lol. But yeah I should be back on the regal this winter

I could understand you getting burnt out on the project. Sometimes you need a fresh project with a new approach.

Wow a 55 nice!!

If you go with an Lt style engine you can change the cam on the fuel pump to increase the flow and pressure.

They make the kits for the V8 version don't see why it wouldn't work for the V6
