It's with Dave Billadeau now so I can't answer all these questions. He mentioned your name as a source of info.

The carb is a Holly.

Dave just took out the pistons. One of them is an odd replacement. He reported that otherwise it is pretty much stock.

Thanks. It's great to have a bit of the backstory.
Here's the engine.

@Dave mentioned this before, I think these came from Brisbane taxi. The axle is more heavy duty than standard.

The pipes are pretty rough so getting rid.

Does anyone know where my engine came from? It's a 318 but not ...

Does anyone know if the front Discs are different in the Valiant VF/VG compared to the US Dart? I assume the rear drums are identical but the front possibly different due to the RHD variations.

Thanks

It's the lime green Valiant, with the Ford engine.

I'm also going to have to replace these. Threads are knackered!

Magic. Thanks Dave for all the info. I'll take some time tomorrow to go though it all.

It is only the rear drums. The front are discs upgrade and I was forgetting that they were not standard.

Reaching out for some help here with ordering the correct brake components for my VF. @Dave?!!!
Cylinder ceased and pads, etc require replacement.

Following recommendations I'm looking at RockAuto for parts. But there are a plethora of options, and from expertise here I'm aware I need to know what ...

thanks Dave. Information gold as usual!

Time to replace my wiring so my investment doesn't go up in flames on first start! [-o<

My plan is to get a mopar wiring loom / harness kit. I have an auto electrician who can fit it for me.
I'm seeking advise on how many circuits to get and which kit to buy.

Circuits - I have the original (in a ...

3 inch drums!? I guess these must have been upgraded as the fronts are disc, which I think were not standard either.

Thanks Dave. Massive wealth of info there! Sorry taken me a while to respond - there has been an issue with notifications on the forum that I wasn't aware of.

My car is with the body shop now and the mechanic is going to have to do this job for me.
Plumkrazy are recommending this this complete ...

Hello all.

I need to have my front suspension and steering rebuilt on my VF Valiant. There is a bunch of worn-out kit to replace.

I recall a custom adjustable kit for the VF/VG that allowed the front set-up to be installed with relative ease (i.e. without lifting block or dismantling around). I ...

Hi Pete. Thanks for sharing your situation & revelation. No doubt difficult but respect to you - how many of us have cringed when we've seen a car parked up and rotting and the owner says "I'm going to restore it one day" - but never does! What vehicle/s have you decided to keep and focus on, if any ...

As spotted on FB,

RBO 17J. Handsome vehicle. Difficult to tell how the body condition is.
