    Just discovered your site. And found my first wagon. Just an old Valiant but I'm sure it'll be OK. Haven't seen it yet, hopefully in a couple of weeks. It will make a good his n hers with my 2 door They are both 61's I am looking forward to checking out your website.

    We get up to Gimli for the drags every now and again. An old 4 door Satellie and a 440 just for fun. I've bought the wagon, just waiting on ownerships to get it across the border. Pretty minty, could probably drive her as is

    On our drive to the Garden City mall, there's a nice 1965 2-door valiant. I think the owner just leaves out on his side yard to wait for a guy to make an offer. It's been there, parked for years. Don't think it runs, but the body looks decent. If you're interested, I'll take a pic, and post it. I don't want ot ask, because if you come by later, he might get ideas that he's got a gold mine, with all the enquiries.

    Valiant wagon

    My dad had a Valiant wagon, I was real little I remember it was red and it was a manual shift at the steering column, and that's about all I know about that. Man I'm old.
