Craig
Looks fantastic! What did you use for the front suspension and what driveline is planned?

This Valiant is amazing!
If you think you can get this thing street registered with the help of engineers then I may very much consider bringing my PT 68 camaro back to Queensland(from the states) in the coming year or two.

Hi guys thanks for all the positive comments.

lebowski - The front end we used was from an Australian company but we are having some steering rack issues. The geometry is a little out and has to much bump steer for our liking as this car will see alot of road and track use we want it to drive right.

The Val will be running a 440 Hemi with Indy heads and efi should have 600hp. Torqueflite box and a Raceproducts fabricated diff housing with 35 spline floating hubs. Willwoods all round.

The owner likes to use his toys so it has power steering and aircon too.

slimjim - This will be 100% road legal we have worked with our engineer from day 1 and he is happy with everything so far. There is a good chance yours will be able to be on the roads in Australia maybe just contact someone first.

Will update when i can or check out our facebook page

Very nice clean work , I like how you rolled the trunk pan instead of having a hard edge
