The Valiant

Well the Valiant is done sleeping for the winter and it is back on the roads once again. Since the gallery is gone, I thought I would post some updated pictures of the car. At this point, I have no further plans for the Valiant. Just to enjoy it!


This is what my licence plate does in the sun :)










My stickers. Elizabeth Montgomery had a '77 Bentley that was almost the same color as the Valiant. The licence plate said "BentLiz"






Here is the interior.




I took the Pioneer out of the Spirit and put it in here. I like it a lot better than that Panasonic one I had, it always gave me problems.


I am keeping it original. They are only original once! Thank you for looking guys.

i took these pictures in a parking lot across from my dad's garage. downtown johnstown, pa. i don't acutally live in downtown, i live up on the hill in richland.

i'm glad you all like the valiant. i love it too. i just hate how people seem to target me more in this car (believe it or not). they see me on the highway and they will do anything to pass the old grandma car, whether i am going 60 mph or 85 mph... they just plain have to pass me. it gets very annoying!

Maybe they are passing to get a good look at it, I know I would! I would also give the driver a thumbs up :D

well elizabeth was a great actress and most guys think she was pretty good lookin. i just wish her other works were more available to people like Johnny Cool or Lizzie Borden. They were so different from Bewitched, and showed the different roles that she could play.

I still heart you hoop :wub:
