I'm really enjoying the VC ...back in 1966 when I was 11..my dad came home with a brand spanking VC V8 in metallic blue .. what a car ! He did 100,000 miles by November 1969...mainly country at cruising speeds I cannot even mention but yeah..three figures that may even have an 05 at the end. 😂 As kids my view from the back seat was his hand coming down on the console shifter and dropping it back to 2nd..whoosh! He had many new Valiants, starting with an S and through to CM 318.. as a school kid we went to the factory and watched VCs being built, they tanked them in phosphoric acid or something that got into all the crevices to prevent rust..but nothing is going to protect a body forever ..specially if it been in the weather for decades..feel your doing this body justice !
