The Llama Barn Valiant! A Budget A-Body That Goes Around Corners

- On today's episode, we look at another of my brother's quality collectibles. You can tell it's one of my brother's cars by the way that it's blue, the paint is all cooking off, it makes horrible rattling noises, and there's...a bit of a smell. But the spicy 360 V8, four speed, and the simple bolt on suspension upgrades really turn this absolute pile of 1967 Plymouth Valiant into a great driving car.

A valiant! Well that's nice! Epic!!! And cool.......I like it... Who else like this?
Me? Lol
Me too its cool its a 2 door😁
Love it !
Of course, two-thumbs up!
Mee too. First car was a 66 Valiant, /6
That thing is insanely cool.
I bought and sold a lot of these in the late 80's-mid 90's also lots of Darts with the slant 6,there was a strong following in my area for frugal buyers wanting gas mileage and reliability..Those were different than when I had one with a V8 those guys you knew were going to drag race it or a quick street car..
The slant 6 cars even 4 doors sold fast,bought them needing work for next to nothing made about $700-$1000 per slant 6 car,basically every old car I bought back then late 80's -mid 90's thats a nice chunk of change today(roughly $2000 per car) remember I bought these for $150-$300 needing work,usually failed emission testing or leaky/dead transmission fixed for less than $100 aka junkyard trans)...
I always liked that style of Valiant always wanted a Black/Black with dog dish hubcaps and a built 340 or 360..Closest was a light green/black looked great 273 4bbl,duel exhaust Valiant Signet.. I wish in 1987 I knew how rare it was and would have kept it! Bought it with a leaking torque conv,replaced it she ran great probably sold it for less than $1500 in 1987 as a young teen,oh well...Even my Chevy buddies who hated Mopars liked the Valiant,they hated Mopars because their SS 396 Chevelles would lose to my 383 4bbl Newport!
Father had a 4 door Valiant with a 4 speed and slant six. No power steering and no power brakes. Only one window would roll down. An interesting ride in 90 degree heat. You really had to concentrate driving it.
Actually, the ‘67 Valiant two door is one of my my all time faves - when these things were new I vividly remember a ‘67 Signet coupe around town - navy blue, stainless side window trim, white buckets - and a 273 4BBL! I like your brother’s car, too!
Uncle Tony brought me here. As a 62 year old retired auto tech with over 40 years in the industry, I think like he does and approve of the way you do things as well. Very refreshing to see a young bright guy who has a soul and 'gets it'. Have been recommending you and spreading the word about this channel to my car buddies. Thanks for the content, Jamie. I worked on a million of these old cars starting in '79 all the way until '21, and some of the memories are pretty horrific. I had forgotten all about those late '70's ignition switch metal steering column lock outs!!! LOL.... And in CA, all of those cars had lean burn and customers always complained about the crappy lean-miss idle. Keep up the great work.
Thank you! I’ll do my best!
I can’t beleive that car runs as well as well as it does , man I would love to have its a great sleeper. Could be the best of all time.
What a lovely patina... again!
Cool little car! I had 2 69's back in the 80's one was my daily driver the other was turned into a drag car that's in Tennessee now. I actually traded the daily driver one to a 72 Cuda 340 with a bad engine, that wouldn't happen nowadays!😂
No that’s a hell of a deal! I’d make that deal. Haha.
I like it. I think if you adjust and fix things as you find it will be a fun car to drive around.
Oh absolutely. I almost volunteered more of my time to fix things on it for him, until I realized that I really didn’t want to 😅 I have almost bought the car from him in the past. It would be really satisfying to work through the little issues and make it all that it can be.
the lama, im in love with!!! it fn rocks!!!! rust patina and all .its prefect
Cool ass Valiant. Love the patina.
Funny commentary too 😎
Had a buddy that had a 4 door valiant with about 400 gubujillion thousand miles on a slant 6. Ran when none others would. Didn't mind mud dust or snow. It liked to track up the Milwaukee rr abandoned tracks, or to do any other task we asked of it. Had more fun with that than all other of my friends cars....plus it was quicker than my friends 63 Nova SS!
Very cool 😎 glad it has ended up with someone who knows what to do with it 🚗
What town ya'll in. Currently in NM, from WA.
Always liked the body style of these years
My buddy had a valiant like that slam 6 Auto and one day he decided the body looked pretty rough so we worked at a record store so we took all the 45s that the owner😛 didn't want anymore and we glued them all over the car we got a lot of attention also got pulled over by police what the hell you doing it was cool thanks for the video I like those Valiants
That’s impressive!
SCORE. I GOT A WOODY TODAY TNANSK HUGE VALIENT FAN BRING THAT MODEL BACK LIV IT AND THANK YOU FOR THE A. BODY
That's a scary looking car. It has the moonshiner feel with those dog dish caps. It looks like the kind of car that you don't even think about messing with.
There was a guy in Atlanta way back many moons ago who drove a scruffy old Nova that looked like that. All he ever did was tune that damn car and race people for titles out on the access road behind the airport. He was undefeated for many years.
He was a Vietnam vet with a pair of brass ones the size of grapefruits and nothing fazed this dude. Whenever I see a car like this, it reminds me of that guy. It just has that vibe.
People are so much more open and friendly about all this stuff today.
I came up during the tail end of that old gladiator mentality that was left over from the 50s. Ask any of the old timers you know. They'll probably tell you some great stuff.
Oh yeah. It’s every bit the rugged street warrior in spirit. It doesn’t really get driven that way. Of course the days of “street action” are largely gone, unfortunately… the real fun these days is just getting these cars back on the road. In a world where Nissan Maximas are measurably faster than the average classic… it’s just a different time.
Dude, much loved that video! It's the perfect combo of ratty and rad. Love them sleepers. 3 pedal fun for days. I would take one of those Valiants any day as my A body rig. Oh Hell Yes. Hell yes.
I get the feeling that you and your bro aren’t best buddies. Thanks for the memories of my 69 valiant 3 on the tree slant six. That car needs a cheap fix it up and rattle can paint job…the cop wheels and dog dishes are perfect!
Naaaaa, we're good. We just have our own, very distinct ways of doing things. Haha. And in this case I've got to disagree on a rattle job. I think this one is a perfect candidate for a clean up, buff job on what's left of the paint, and some of that magic shine juice...
Cool Buggy!
Great ! can't wait to see your next video . Good narrative also .
I can watch this channel all night. I think I did once.
Thank you for your efforts! Haha.
Love the Llama Barn Valiant! I would prefer no exhaust in the cabin and maybe fully functioning U joints but I'm picky. Either way, I definitely agree with all that has been done to it including 3 pedals and a stick. Just got an 833OD installed in my Dart Sport and am hoping my mystery 318 will deliver 20 on the road. We'll see.
I get that old 2 doors post cars should be cheaper, but when looking for an A body about 5 years ago, anything 2 door hardtop was not 'cheap' - Its amazing how it transformed from a throw-away car to a highly desirable muscle car platform. Even F & M bodies are creeping up in 'value.' I would imagine we can blame auction houses that rhyme with starrett plaxson for that but that's a kind of a different topic. Keep the content coming Jamie!
So many different factors leading to our fun not being so cheap anymore… damn them. Oh well. No I’m right there with you. Haha. In fact I think we’ll be working on some of those things on an upcoming episode.
Your sense of humor kills me 😂😅 awesome video!
Love them post cars!
That looked like a fun car to beat on in the twistys. Thanks for the ride
Love the '67 Valiant post cars! It's one I have never owned but always wanted. Maybe one day...
I always thought of the pentastar on the fender sort of like a birthmark… no wait, a beauty mark!
P.S. Your hair sure grows fast!
I really like the '67, grill, tail lights, body lines. Had a '67 Dart GT. Being 55, I still can't decide if I prefer no side marker lights, or the round ones on '68 model year cars. But the Green Brick. I loved how that car embarrassed a lot of high end muscle cars, and sports cars back in the day, especially on road courses.
Oh yeah. Such an awesome build. I remember reading about it way back when and it was just the coolest. It’s a tough call. The round are my favorite, but I really like the ‘67 Barracuda and Valiant more.
I really enjoyed my 67 Dart GT. 273 4 Barrel, console automatic, 3.55 sure grip. That car was so much Fun.
@@shaunclifton5281 mine was originally built by my brother back in mid '80s. 273, three on the tree, 2 bbl. He had the motor rebuilt as a, could be wrong, D 500 platfrorm, the HP 273. switched it to a 4 spd. Can't remember what 4 bbl he put on. those little motors, just screamed. They wind up so fast.
Valiant fleet body 2 door sedan?!?!?!? Holy smokes Ratman! Goodness only Plymouth could provide
Drive my ‘66 Valiant around town all the time. Love it. It does have the weak little brakes common in those cars, so every ride is an adventure.
I like drums… 10” drums. The little guys, not so much.
🇺🇸👍 Good video, and great 1/4 mile drag car 👍
Big time! And thanks!
Anybody with a set of eyes should see that little car has a wide wicked streak. It just oozes attitude. It deserves to be nut n bolted to it's potential.
Very cool valiant. I had a 70 valiant 4 door.
I just got my Dead Dodge Garage t-shirt and sticker! I love them!! You're the best Mopar channel out there by far.
Awesome! Thank you very much!
Hey Jamie, on the one only pentastar badge,,, I was told several years ago, while at the Mopar Nats, that Chryslers reason for the one badge was to symbolize a signature. The badge was specifically place on the lower portion of one side only. Much like the signature on a letter.
That’s interesting! The general consensus in the comments here is that the right side faces the curb, so people walking by could see it. But like… why would that matter?
I had a 69 Valiant Signet with a slant 6 I bought in the late 90's for around $600. This car really makes me miss it.
I heard the pentastar was mounted on the passenger side so that when it was parked curbside, people walking by could identify it as a Chrysler product without having to walk around to the front or back to see the name (I know - the name is on the fender, who knows...?)
That is the tale everyone has accepted as fact. It might be! But I’m not so sure.
"Oh yeah............there's some sounds!'
One of these days I am driving up to your place to buy a Dodge from you.
I just know it, I can feel it in my bones, in fact I think we might just be related.
Love the Dusters
When those cars were new. They were bought by people that were always careful to use both sides of new paper. 1969 was a long, long time ago :-)
Here in Australia, the grille and rear lights were different . Of course we have everything inside on the right side. One of my work mates has your version in right hand drive but unsure how that came to be. Their build years were from late '67 thru to '70 and designated as VE , VF , and VG, of course V being for Valiant. Enjoyed the ride Jamie.
10:05 Pentastar was on the psngr side for curb ID..however ya wanna say it.
so ppl walking down the street would know you had a Chrysler Corp cruiser.
Fun fact! I was at a gun show a few yrs back. Dude there had a big pile of patches.
One of 'em looked like a pentastar. i bought a stack of them. Turns out it was a US Army patch
from like WW2! Whomever 'designed' the pentastar, lifted the design! lol.
I'd love to find one of these! Haven't found one that hasn't rusted into the ground!
My kind of look - id love this and ive leave it exactly how it is
Will I never though I would say this about a Valiant but there is something cool about your bothers Valiant.
That is another great project, you have all the best 4 spd cars ! Some friends had an older valiant than that (previous bodystyle?) it had an automatic trans but no column shifter, there were mechanical pushbuttons on the dash to the left of the steering wheel, so wierd. I had thrush mufflers on my old Belvedere 318, small diameter with woodpecker emblem on the side they sounded awesome and were dirt cheap
Oh yeah, push button! Last year for that was ‘64. They’re neat.
That looks fun.
It looks perfect!
Cool video
I'm sorry, but absolutely love that Valiant....
It’s really, really cool in my book. No apology needed - but we’ll try not to let it go to his head.
That's a sweet car always wanted a valiant.
Man I love this car
I love that car!
Awesome!!
It makes me feel great about my 71 demon watching this video. Its very much in the same condition.... but soooo fun!
Outstanding! Fun is the most important part in all of this. I know my Demon is relatively nice, but it really didn't have to be for me to love it. I am a lot more about what a car can do than what it looks like.
@@DeadDodgeGarage when your banging through the gears with a pistol grip 4 speed it doesn't matter what the paint looks like. Ya got some great content bud!
Not bad 👍. So much potential ❤
The '67 Valiant is my Favorite year for Vals- I love that grill too. And when UTG was building Slaghammer and converted the 4 door to 2 door I really flipped out. But then Mopar Al took over... and I thought he was doing a good job on it and thought it was kinda kool, although Tony's trucks axle width trak really bugged me, as gasser's really never had that look, and trust me- Gassers were my faves back in the day, and I'm 5 years older than Defeo. PS- I knew the young punk Defeo back in the day, and even street raced him and BEAT him, and let's say that didn't sit well with the hot headed punk back in 1979...but I better shut up now. 😝
I had my doubts too, but I really like how Slaghammer turned out. I just saw a shot of it with some new wheels that really give it something. The ‘67 is awesome. Maybe the best. I love and usually prefer ‘68s, but ‘67 Valiants and Barracudas win…
We gotta hear more details on this story of racing UT in 1979!
Yes but you should invite tony to the party if you’re going to talk about him
Love it.
That Rim Blow steering wheel is worth 5x what your brother paid for the car. Love the mopar post cars.
Oh we all know that. Haha.
72 Valiant with under coated frame, by Ziebart! Easiest to work on, best car I've had in years! Sorry I doldrums it 5 years ago!
Parts fall off go back and pick them up,or not. Nice car,brother has good taste.😂
I have that same car 67,68,72 love them a bodies
idk what ppl do..i drove 60's-70's Mopes from '84 till like 2000..never had a single
v. regulator issue. i now have a mostly done '70 Fury Gran Coupe w/a de-smogged
'77 440. i think i recall 1 time out of several ppl..inc my folks..in the last 60 yrs..
someone losing a volt reg, lol. & all muscle era mopes do corners well. decent tires & a
fr. end alignment once every decade is about all that's needed to rly denounce the
fiction of cars of that era not cornering well. ok..many ford & chevy cars didnt, lol. if things are
taken a lil further..gusseted K, sub frame connectors, big wheel/tires, nice shocks, proper fr end alignment with a lot of pos caster..maybe run the new fangled tubular A arms..it's amazing
corner carving time!
Cool Valiant! lightest & stiffest of the Mopars of the era & has
more patina than the Titanic!
I don’t know what people do either, but I know what I do - I install “quality” voltage regulators, and then later they die. I have replaced more than I could possibly count in my Mopars and customer cars over the last sixteen years.
I really like the way these cars handle - as long as they’ve got a sway bar. There are a lot of nice modifications that can be done beyond that to make them better and better.
@@DeadDodgeGarage Hmm, interesting. I'd use OE ones..even if 50 yrs old. who knows what is inside of newer made ones? (interesting idea to tear apart an original only if already smoked and a newer one & comparo them?) And..always check batt ground connection, has to be good to protect the volt reg. try not to run weak batteries ever. ik..a toughie! a lil solar panel can help with intermittent use cars..for a trickle charger. i swear by AGM batts..a lil pricey, but a fine long term investment. tho..i have heard optimas aint what they used to be. // yaa..fabulous handling, indeed. they go where ya point them..minimum (ok, None. lol) bad manners, predictable. Chrysler Corp did actually use a computer..ancient as it was..to design the geometry & all. ..i think GM at the time just sketched it on a napkin :p Tbars & asymmetrical leafsprings, forever :)
You know how you were talking about doing a slant 6 turbo. I just watched a video on the same kind of build and it was pretty cool. They used a lot of stuff from speed shops down under. But I think that it will definitely make a great video and a fun car. Anyway thanks for everything
Awesome! It’s definitely been done. My way will be a more home brew, bucks down setup. Can’t wait!
@@DeadDodgeGarage That's what I like about you. You know how to get things done on the down low. LOL. Like most of us gear heads.My very first car was a 69 Roadrunner and it came out of the junkyard. I built it from bits and pieces of different cars and I wish I still had the hunk of junk today. My son and I would work on it when it needed it. Thank you again
You obviously love the vehicles you work on - it must be absolutely frustrating to deal with the mess that most come to you in! Such lovely cars and trucks molested, forgotten and mistreated - should be a law against it!
It sure can be… frustrating is definitely the right word. But the trade off is the satisfaction at the end when they finally work the way they’re supposed to.
Does have a lot of cool stuff going on- ahhh, yess, flat cornering!
Those iron case OD's are in the mid '80's pickups witb /6's- full size transmisson. Was going to kit-bash a F-body aluminum case OD for the shorter output shaft & A-body friendly shifter pad location..
For a mild smallblock, the Novak 4x4 folks are using a Dakota V6 10.5" clutch bellhousing with a AX-15.
Been thinking about the 2wd AX-15 in an A-body might be fun.
This is an iron A/F body length transmission. I’ve seen a couple of them. Not sure why they exist but they do. I’ve heard about using the AX15 as well. These days it seems like the thing to do is just spend the money and get a TKX.
@@DeadDodgeGarage Like a lot of Ma Mopar's stuff, there seems to be an exeption to every rule.
I've never come across one back when they were still found in the yards, but my sample size was probably 20 OD units total.
And I know after working at a vehicle production facility, due to circumstances, acceptable parts substitutions will be made.
A friend of mine had a 67 4 door he put a 340 in his with a 4 speed it was wicked I miss that car
Oh, and heard the Penastar is only in the passenger side in North America so people walking by on the sidewalk know it’s part of the family. In countries where they drive on the other side of the road, the emblem is missing or on the other side. Don’t recall which now.
Someone told me it’s on the other side in LHD countries. I knew that story, and was starting to say that but I didn’t know it to be historical fact. So thought better of it. Many, many people have made sure to tell me in the comments…
It will even look better after you paint the cop wheels the right color!
The stock small bolt steelies were 😭
Woow a 2 door , hey why clean hats 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🥲
Well it’s always nice when they at least start clean, right? 🤣
Soooooo cool.
I like it!
The penta star is on the passenger side because,,,when you park at curbs the passenger side always faces the sidewalk, so people walking by knew it was a Chrysler product!! True story!!
But is it a true story? Or is it just something everyone says? I almost recounted that in the video, but the point I was trying to make is that I don't know it to be true, and I don't know that anyone else does either! I wish I had now, because many people have popped in to tell me this story I already knew 😅
@@DeadDodgeGarage it's true
The pentastar is mounted on the the passenger side for safety reasons same thing with the 70 fury’s it’s usually the curb side. That’s a very cool car!
Whose safety is it for?? Haha. It’s pretty dang cool I think.
@@DeadDodgeGarage The driver or the passengers. Get a haircut you hippie
".....and I parked in a bush." 😃
You always notice the things I'm most proud of!
I like it
Pentastars are only on passenger side, because that is the curb side. This way ppl walking by could see it is a mopar.
I have heard people say that, but I don’t 100% take that as fact. I almost recounted that possibility in the video but decided against it, because I don’t know it to be true.
I make horrible noises when I come off the ground too. Lol
🤣
👍👍👍👍
Do you have any of the Exner-styled valiants from 1960-1962? My aunt from Astoria had one with a slant-6 and a vacuum tube radio. It was faded purple.
We don’t! I hope to have one some day. They’re so nifty.
Had a '70 Valiant sedan with a 318, 4-speed, disc brakes, sway bar & an 8.75' with a 3.23 SG...the bad part was a kid had it & wrecked several panels on it. It was fun to drive, but ended up being stripped
Bummer… sounds awesome. I had a really solid and decent ‘72 sedan that I screwed up pretty well.
@@DeadDodgeGarage I still have the '76 sedan I got off the Tulalip, brought it out to North Carolina. It gets tons of attention
Best guess, curb side eye candy.
Yes that’s the old wives tail. I just don’t know it to be true.
damn i love this lama...just noticed in your neighbors drive way the baby blue pick up truck. is that an early d50?
Did they build these in utes in the US? They did here in Australia, I had one, it had all the same Mopar quirks you know so well. I still loved it tho.
They did not… that’s awesome. I have seen various foreign A bodies over the years that look very intriguing. No, I’m afraid if I want an A body ute, I’m going to have to build it myself…
Please more videos of the Valiant.
What should we do with it?! Clearly there could be an entire video just in un-goofing all of the things I showed in this one. Haha.
The pentastar is only on the pasengner to be seen from the curb/sidewalk when parked.
So they say…
Oh yeah, I remember hearing something to that effect in the '80s I think.
Hey DDG! my folks had one of these in the same silver/blueish as this one, but with like a thousand times less rust. Well it gets the mileage I want, and it has most of the sound I like, Did/Do they (Direct Connection) make a "Purple Shaft" cam for the small blocks? I like the way it made easy horsepower and idled like a funny car (sorta, you know) I hate all of the unibody, pretty much anyways. But it IS a muscle car, now anyways. Something modest could be the answer for my "4x4 for a muscle car trade" that I'd like to make. '70 birds are just too over priced. Hey a Satellite, or duster, demon, valiant etc. etc. might just be the answer, but definitely not this rough because the whole reason I want to trade is 'cause I'm badly disabled and now discussing my 11th surgery with my doctors. I'm having massive trouble getting my boot up to the step-bars, not to mention the trouble my dementia afflicted wife of 25 years is having. Looks like a lot of fun!
They sure did make small block Purple Shaft cams. Gotcha. Sounds like a lot to deal with… Hopefully a suitable trade for you is out there.
I would actually enjoy seeing all the bugs worked out of this Valiant.
Someone else said they want to see more on it too! That could well happen. It lost spark in the driveway the next time it started after this video was made and hasn’t run since 😅
@DeadDodgeGarage Yeah, let's jump back on it, and really wake it up. I have a 65 Valiant V200 wagon that I plan on going slightly warmer 360 Magnum staying with the beer keg intake and 518.
And the good early 340 exhaust manifolds.
Omg I love those wagons. Do those 340 manifolds fit in an early A? I didn’t think so.
I remember a valiant that I thought a car magazine built for one lap of America..
The Green Brick! I actually mentioned that at the very end of the video. Somehow I never thought of it while looking at the actual car. Haha.
I have the same cast iron overdrive transmission going in my 73 duster.
Nice! The iron one is tough. The aluminum units tend to have problems. And I say that as someone who has thoroughly tested the theory…
I'm also putting an 833OD into my Scamp. I have both iron and aluminum ones and I'm going to use the aluminum one for the weight savings. The problem with the aluminum ones is that the hole in the case for the rear of the countershaft was bored too large at the factory, which allows the countershaft to flop around when you're shifting. This slowly wears out the countershaft hole and eventually the counter-to-main shaft clearance gets too large and the trans goes boom. There are a few ways to fix this. You can bore out the countershaft hole and put in a bushing with the correct clearance, preferably the bushing will be made out of something harder than the original aluminum. You can install some shim stock on the countershaft, of the correct thickness to make it a slight interference fit in the case. Or, you can use some "thick" Loctite/bearing retainer adhesive to lock the end of the countershaft in the case. Or whatever else you can think of to keep the countershaft from flopping around when you shift.
We need input from Australia to see if the pentastar is on the opposite side, if that's the case it would give credence to the sidewalk theory.
Agreed! Although it’s also possible no one at Chrysler would have thought to switch them. Haha.
I used to own a 71 challenget R/T 383.4spd. Did Dodge use the same 4-speed in a 440/Hemi application? Just curious.
There is a special input shaft with 18 splines and matching gearset for the “Hemi” transmission, which was also used behind RB engines in some applications (the ‘68 Charger R/T with 440, for example.) Otherwise, they are essentially the same transmission. The only important external consideration would be which clutch disk is used.
@@DeadDodgeGarage I bought that car in 1979 when I was 13 years old. My dad helped me buy it. 550 bucks! It was totally stock, not a speck of rust on it. It was supposed to be green with a black vinyl top. The kid I bought it from sprayed it flat black and peeled the vinyl top off. The black interior was perfect except for the carpet was shot and the console was gone. I ripped the carpet out of the thing and I remember the floors were absolutely perfect! Shiny F5 green! I wish I still had that car. Thanks for the information about the transmission. I dig your Channel!
I run the 4 spd od in both my 66 Dart GT n 74 D100.. it works much better with steeper gears.. Dart has 3.91 n 14" tires truck 3.91 or even happier with 4.10.. good mpg means u can afford to drive them n leave them sitting 😊
I ran an OD in my ‘66 Barracuda with 4.10s. It did work pretty well.
@DeadDodgeGarage I like the long 2nd gear.. I'm running a .060 over 360 with pretty worked over j heads, hooker supercomp headers ,edelbrock performer rpm cam and intake with 850 carb,crane triple wrap springs HD locks n retainers, crane adjustable rocker arms, HD shafts n hold downs.. the big torque it makes right from idle up past where hp starts covers alot of territory in 2nd n leaves both hands to keep it off the roof n outta the ditch🤣
I approve
The star only on the pas side, was for curb view for advertise
Your channel is so much better that watching politicians yell at each other!
They only put the Pentastar emblem on the passenger side as they were aiming at the people looking at it from the sidewalk
Yes, I know. Haha.
I recall a Mopar magazine making the ‘Green Brick’ on a platform like this, was quite a car
If you make it to the very, very end of the video, I finally mention the Green Brick 😅
Jeez, I posted my comment before you referenced the ‘Brick, I loved Mopar Action! Still have a box of old issues
