Still on hold for painting and the forecast doesn't look encouraging for at least ten days.
Today is the biggest local show of the year in nearby Denton, and it's pouring rain that is expected to last most of the day. I had intended to pre-register my '64 Valiant to save a few bucks, but they sent the forms too late, so I guess I saved even more by not registering at all.
I've owned this V200 for about sixteen years and have gradually restored, upgraded or modified nearly every part. It has a lightly modified '79 Super Six, and all the drivetrain, brakes and suspension have been upgraded. It's fun to drive, but doesn't get much use in the mid-summer heat.
As you can see, I like sixties Mopars also. I worked at a Chrysler-Plymouth dealership in '64 and had a couple of Valiant demos, and loved them. I had been looking for a Valiant convertible for years when I found this one.
The music began to deteriorate about the time the war began, but it was still a good time to be alive.
