This is a really good idea passing one project among car builders and watching the process of seeing the car come back to life, enjoy watching the videos.
I’m glad you are enjoying the journey! If you want to follow the build on the car: go to Functional Histories TH-cam channel, click on playlist. Then the folder called “Stone Soup”. There You will see the build from start to finish. 👍
Had to have fun with it… 😃 Wish I had more time to do more! But I had to send it so everyone had a timely shot at working on it before the NNN when I see it again. Can’t wait for its transformation! 😎
That was an interesting massage on the grill. work outside in, the bestest part towards the worestest. Careful not to bend the same place twice as aluminium snappes. At least that is what I was Hearing. No I am not ready to try it. But you made it look Heavenly.....
Guy at our local drag strip ran a 62 Lancer for years. Had a slant with a 4 speed. It would run a 8.0 in the 1/8 mile. I have a picture of it with a 7.98 dial on the windshield.
Interesting how it came back to me… “thought it was all just a dream…” Hey Vic! You know what they say? If you give something away and it comes back to you then it’s yours right?! 🤔😂😉
I hear you there. But they definitely do grow on you! Now I love them. My dad got me interested in them. I want to chop the top on my 62 valiant (slight differences between the lancer) and put a 340/4-speed in it…🤔😎👍
It might not be perfect, but it’s SO much better. The car doesn’t look like it got kicked in the face anymore. Nice work!
Thanks.
‘Kicked in the face’… that’s hilarious! 😂
Thanks again Jamie for putting the ball in motion on “Stone Soup”. 😎👍

Labor of love getting that grill sorted out!! What a transformation, truly impressive
Thanks. It definitely took more time than I thought, especially to make the grill fit once I straightened it out…
but it was totally worth it all! 😃👍
It looks so much better than before! You did an excellent job!
Thanks! They say that it does not take much to make a big difference! 🤔👊🏻

Stone soup? 🤣 Check out what I brought home! 😁
In Canada, since this car predates the Canada - USA Auto Pact, all our cars were Valiants regardless if it came from a Dodge or Plymouth dealership.
Amazing work Scott! I love the "Dream sequence" theme. I'm am now officially a fan! Thanks for helping with stone soup!
Thanks, it all seemed like a dream getting the car back, I had just passed it along, so I went with it. I appreciate the support.

Very similar to the contemporary Plymouth Valiant.
Man Scott, that looks a lot better! All this work on a car you've already sent away!
Interesting how it came back to me… “thought it was all just a dream…”
Hey Vic! You know what they say? If you give something away and it comes back to you then it’s yours right?! 🤔😂😉
