1975 Chrysler cj
Hi I've just purchased LHP708P silver grey CJ that's shown on this list. I'm in Leicester. Thanks shaun
Hi Shaun, I saw it when it was on eBay a while back. Smart looking car. What did you pay for it? I'm sure it'll give you some great joy. I don't know of any others (Chrysler by Chrysler models) on the road at the min (happily stand to be corrected though!).

Hi Pete, yeah they seem pretty rare, it's got a few niggles I'm sorting out but I'm very pleased with it. Having no luck obtaining front brake pads in uk as they're different to Usa models apparently but I've found some on eBay.au so just gotta wait for them now as mine are wafer thin. Are there any good suppliers in uk for the Aussie model parts ? Shaun
you have the best brakes from the valiant range
VJ-CL Girlock calipers. also used on Aussie ford Falcon and Holden
next time pads DB1004 or 1004HD and get Holden ones
often cheaper for the same thing because more holden customers than Valiant.
in theory any BENDIX brake pad supplier should be able to order them for you
on the other hand I have also toyed with the idea of getting these
and seeing if they fit..... shape is the same apart from the edges to the backing but no idea on the actual size of the pads
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/221527087401? ... EBIDX%3AIT
this is the model listing for them but no idea if they actually fit.
I might get some from

Hey Sandy, thanks for those photos!Sandy wrote:Seek (or in this case be trawling through folder after folder of car photos on your PC) and ye shall find.
Do you have this one? Edit, just checked and yes you do...
...
It doesn't look too much different now (the rust - look at those front guards!) - but the colour - all that black is gone. Someone has sanded it back to the original blue. Vinyl roof gone too.

See how good your eyes are?
Thanks to Lee Taylor who posted these photos up on his facebook page.
Way back in late seventies/early eighties (the Custom Car scan is November, 1979) and the Forth Valley Cruisers, I think they were called.
Lots of F-bodies and a 1970 Buick GS455 Stage 1 convertible, but also this Charger. I can't read the plate. Others eyes may be better.

Dodge This, Cat That
Found another new one to the list RGC8L
Jack found this whilst on one of his lunchtime excursions from school, it's only 4 miles from us.
4 door CH with about 30K miles. We've spoken to the owner and hope to see the car out soon.
