    My old Val RIP

    ImageShack - Hosting :: imgce3.jpg

    This is or was my lovely old 1976 VJ Regal, she ran a 265 and had a 727 Auto she only had 140,000 kms, I got her as a write off from her original owner and had it repaired, its now on the Gold Coast after I traded it in on bloody Jeep Cherokee bucket of rubbish, so Gold Coast boys if you see her about let me know if its being looked after I miss that car so much.

    Why didnt you find a D1 to trade it on?????
    Hell of a lot better vehicle for the same $$$ or less
    Long live the old Val,I have a mate we call Crash the Valiant Slayer.Due to his love of Valiants(especially 265s with triples and 2 doors) and his ability to completely destroy them in crazy accidents and walk away unscathed

    I traded her in bad moment, the auto was starting to act up so I traded, got a good dollar for it, some place between Palm Beach and Burliegh in an Industrial area, I was looking at the time at a 60 series cruiser but it had a million ks and was auto and really did nothing for me, the jeep had a 360v8 and ran straight gas and went like a rocket and was surprisingly comfy, drove it 15 hours non stop to home and it never missed a beat, it eventually was sold to a wrecker, I think of that Val everyday
