Take a look at the engine shot of this '68 Valiant (post-fire) and let's have some guesses as to what the fuel filter was made of. |

Looks like it's got a new steering box. |

Oh Dan, this is just like those old 16mm death & carnage driver's ed movies. Some will, some won't, heed the warning.... Now, seeing this happened in America, land of the 2 million dollar spilled Mickey Dee's coffee.... And, a 100 bucks in parts to fix this burned out hunk of iron???? Where is this guy's parts supplier, I want in. |

Now, what caused the fire? Seller says, "split in fuel line to pump". Maybe. What caused that? Anyone have the number to CSI? |

Could it have been glass too? I vote plastic or glass. After the stories I have heard and the pics that I have seen, I will never run anything but metal. I bet that fire in that valiant made the occupant(s) crap their pants! |

Why do you think the fabric on the driver's seat is missing?

Engine fires are scary. When those front tires blow it's a diaper loader for sure. |

Yes, $100 and it's good as new. And the interior is mint! 'Cept for the seat, and the carpet, and the dash.

While the engine is out of the Dart I am pulling the factory line and the glass see through POS that for some reason the parts stores still sell! I have the FI line and a metal filter for the super six conversion. |
