[White trash]

Trashy mate are you living out West now or something?

Still South Side mate

Just miss my old Mopars, can't have a bike, next best thing.

I miss my VC.

Though my mates stopped calling me "the white maori" after I sold it.

they use to be called "the greek mercedies" in Aus

[Madmax]

The slant 6 and 318 were the best engines in any cars that ever came out of Aust.But of course they weren't Australian engines,they could never do anything that well.

Ah the slant 6 loverly engine
Did some repair work on a ships tender that hand three of them in it!
the slants were designed to keep bonnet hight down
this beast had all its under the rear deck they had
genuine mopar racing gear on them.
We had to pull one for an overhaul,its first in 10 years
and we didnt do much

[tri boy]

Only brand of ute that would carry the speedway sidecar, with the tailgate closed.
Abos's loved them. Could carry 1/2the tribe to town, and crashed real well.
Endorsed by pissed abos everywhere.

Yeah I also owned an AP6 with a nicely massaged 225 up it. Fitted a shift kitted 727 and B&M shifter. Most tail happy fucken car I've ever owned. My god it was fun in the wet.

Just putting the feelers out if anyone knows of anything.

Looking for a Valiant Ranger as per above title. Decent rolling body with no running gear would be good but I'll have a look at complete cars. The less rust the better, but also the cheaper the better.

Not adverse to a wagon either but no Chargers or Coupes please.

If anybody knows of one sitting in someones shed or backyard, give us a holler. It's telling me I've got to put a location field in so I've grabbed Auckland but will look into anything in the North Island.

Cheers

wadda bout the ramblers?? I always thought they were pretty cool!!

When I had mine (black with primer spots) everyone used to give way to me

Man I miss my VJ too. 318 V8, twin pipes, Coby mufflers, and the Rally Track pack off the RT Challenger massaged to fit. Originally was silver blue with vinyl roof. Ended up black on black...

Stacked in on the 'takas back in '89.

What a dumarse.

Nah mate, far too tidy to bastardise and that's almost a full years salary for this guy.

Absobloodylutely beautifull car though.

[JimO]

there is a ap5 sitting out in the open next to a old derelict service station in Duntroon inland from Oamaru been there for years and there used to be charger and a xc falcon coupe up a drive way not far away that hadnt moved for several years but disapeared just before xmas

[Motu]

Last year the guy next door (not the one with a dozen cars on their front lawn,this one had six,most in the back yard,I only had 5,now 3) had a couple of Valiant Pacers in the back yard - our cat had kittens in the one closest to the hedge.He put up a 6x9 shed and the Pacer's have gone.Maybe I should ask where they are..?

Next door have gone...not a single wreck on the lawn,I went over and had a look.Although there might be one under all that kikuyu.

[White trash]

Fucken found one.

VH Regal. Recond and massaged 265. Converted to three speed manual floor change(recond as well), 15 inch Cragers, reupholstered interior, slightly lowered, absobloodylutely wicked. I'm in Mopar heaven baby.

Now just need to work out how to pay for it........
