ok, i have lead on a 61 valiant v100 2 dr. i know the 60 @ 61's have a different front suspension setup as opposed to 62 and up a-bodies. is this a real problem, ie. finding parts, etc. also, what should i look for @ lookout for in an early a-body? its from california and currently being driven daily. im really diggin it so far, its red and seems like a solid ride to turn into a nice little street rod(stock exterior and interior w/ modded motor).....................thnx for any opinions and advice you guys might have. i hope to get back to the slanted realm.......................steve

If you like the car-- do not worry too much about availabilty of parts--
(trunk pan, steering shaft diameter, wiring are a few other different items aside from suspension)

Evan A on this site has a fab-- 60 toad wagon-- so he could chime in for parts.

Just check the normal rust issues (rear 1/4's, dog leg behind the door & etc..)
good luck-- hope it works out Lawrence

There is a group for these cars on MSN that I belong to here is a link to it. These guys will know where to get parts and advice .
