- In this video i carry ou some much needed engine repairs to my wifes 265 hemi vy valiant hartop regal to stop the old girl from overheating! so grab your cuppa or coldie kick back relax and enjoy the vid!
Wow time flys! And the old girl has held up well over the last 25 years
Wicked vid brus can’t wait for our work times to align so I can do this with ya
Absolutely lad!! Going to be sick!!
Love the old Valiant, enjoy all your vid's
Cheers Mate I appreciate it!
I love the sounds these cars make when they start
Hahaha yeah definitely unique!
I had my pick of his collection that I could buy and it wasn't easy Lol. I chose a smick VJ 770 318 Sherwood Green metallic Charger instead. I bought many others too but he offered to let me buy one of their own very best Vals at one stage
That's awesome!! Great choice too!
Good tune will go a long way 👍🏻looks like it was a single barrel Hemi index your plugs a big open air cleaner will do wonders as your motor works like a air pump does it have extactors or split exhaust and a good flow system as it will run hot 🔥 if you have the original manifold and the butter fly is frozen 🥶 she will run hot 🥵 . I owned an original orange VH coupe in the early 90s plus a VH v8 coupe 318 also your cam is different on a factory single barrel Hemi etc Owned many MOPAR all the best with the MOPAR 👍🏻.
What a beauty of a Valiant. A low-key classic!
Cheers legend!! Couldn't agree more!!
Excellent. Great car. Thankyou for sharing.
Cheers legend!!
I wish my wife had a valiant !!!Great job mate...Cheers from Greece 😜😜
Cheers Mate!!
Top jam mate👍✌️
@@nathanbevan8657 cheers legend!!
I always loved working on that old girl at our Val barn at Brush Road in Ourimbah NSW.
Jeff from Southern Hemi
As do I! we love it especially the blue interior very unique and turns heads wherever we drive it! Do you have any other stories about the old Val mate?
@@bambamfabrications Yep that royal blue interior sure stood out Lol
@@bambamfabrications That stripe down the side is what old Kenneth called a "flash" in pommie speak Lol. And he loved painting them on his 2 door cars. It warms my heart to see the old girl still looking the same as late Ken had it
@@jeffando2121 yeah it's my favourite feature about the old girl!
Hey Bam ,I watch all of your stuff including your videos with Cody. I’m a Holden man but honestly I’d watch anything you work on you are dead set aussie gold !
Btw never let Cody stick crocs under your feet ever 😵 no matter what .
Cheers from over in Perth Wa
Cheers legend!! Really appreciate the nice words!! Yeah I'm not looking forward to the crocs but I did make a deal with him 😬
Was running a 5 core in Mt Isa, mid 80's throughh mid 90's.
Ambient temps up to 45°c plenty 42° days. 91° thermostat.
Rarely saw 100° on the Murphy switchgauage in an E37 Charger built 20 thou over to 320HP E49 spec. No a/c though..lol...
Radiator capacity counts, especially in the heat & in your case a heavier car.
Good video 😊
Cheers legend 👍
Good one mate I liked your video
Cheers legend!!
Good job mate 👍
Cheers Legend!!
That VJ Hardtop was Old Ken Dixon's wifes car Eileen. And she loved it too. 😊
Very cool we definitely love the old girl!
Hi Jeff, I'm Rob's (Bam Bam) wife and own the hardtop. To hear it was owned by a lady makes me so happy as I named her Queenie. Do you know if Eileen bought it new?
@@kyliemacdonald4976Hi, sorry only just saw this. I doubt they bought it new but most likely from the original owner early on.
They absolutely loved your car (Understanably Lol)
Enjoy! All the best,
Jeff
@@jeffando2121 Thanks for the reply! That's interesting, I now wonder who owned it first.
Awesome mate great vids be keen to wear a hat from your merch here in sunny Nelson ,south island ,NZ ,cheers ,shaneo 👍🍺
Cheers legend!! If your keen on a hat mate send me a message on Instagram or messenger mate and we can go from there!

Absolutely mate!! They made 10x more chargers than they did hardtops!!
Mint Valiant mate
Cheers legend!!
Nice car cobber! 👌🤙
Cheers legend!!
Awesome vidoe brother looking forward to the next one. I would like to buy a cap off ya.
Cheers legend!! Could you send me a message on instagram or messenger mate and I'll get it happening for you!
I have a small video clip somewhere of this car and some of the others shown breifly in the 'Val cave' on the Central Coast NSW in the 1990's with some of the others in the vast collection Lol.
Cheers,
Jeff A from Southern Hemi
That'd be awesome to see mate! If you find it be great if you could share it with us!
@@jeffando2121 I'll see what i can find.
@@bambamfabrications ua-cam.com/video/UYFLvYkxqAo/v-deo.html
Hi Bam Bam, great video and great car. If you need someone to look after the Valiant i will...😁😁 Can't wait to see more of your projects.
How can I get a cap? I'll be in Townsville on a trip this week.
Cheers legend!! The wife barely lets me drive it let alone anyone else 🤣
@@tubbytub2990 if you have instagram or messenger just send me a direct message mate and we'll work out the details mate.
@@tubbytub2990 or if email works for you mate just flick me another email.
Hi Rob, happy Wife happy Life Brutha. I know it is a bit late notice, but have you got plans on coming down to Mopar Sunday this 30th of July old mate. And, the hardtop is cool, best Australian shaped Valiant in my opinion. Cheers, Kenny.
Cheers legend!! I'd love too mate but I'm really busy at the moment! If anything changes and I can make it we'll be down with JIGSAW to try and run a 10! I have a mate coming down your way in about 6 weeks hopefully he can grab the screen. I'll be in touch soon mate!
@@bambamfabrications no worries old mate, i will keep an eye out for a message via email or text. Would be cool to catch up if you do decide to take JIGSAW down for a squirt. Keep the content coming and it is great seeing a mostly Mopar dominant channel down under.
@@Hemiken1 cheers mate!! Really appreciate it!! Will definitely be in touch!
Hey Rob, definitely put me down for a hat...a black one for formal occasions 😁
Cheers stu!!
Hey mate I’ll get 1 away next week when I get back to Townsville.
Loving the hardtop, my 245 has that shake so good to see swapping the lifters and timing gear over sorted it. Whats the damage on the new lifters and timing gear and where did you get them from?
Cheers Mate!! I get all my parts from cheapa auto spares in Townsville and I think it was under $500 for lifters, timing chain and gaskets from memory but I'd have to check the receipts mate.
Love the valiant. Did more valiant . A dead legend. Mopar or no car
Cheers mate!!
Nice 2 door, well done on the fixup. Aren't those old sixes just the shiz to work on. Amazing what a bit of tlc can do.
Cheers legend!! It's a beautiful car to drive and we love cruising it!!
@@bambamfabrications are you guys happy with the EFI ? did you do a vid on it at all?
@@JAStheACE yeah mate I definitely did a video on it and yes very happy with it! They can be a bit to get right sometimes but once they are setup they are magic!
@@bambamfabrications Thanks for the info mate. Cheers
@@JAStheACE your welcome mate!!
Late HEMIs actually had the tensioner standard
Yeah ok cool didn't know that they must have swapped the timing cover from a later model engine?
@@bambamfabrications Hi, yeah I don't remember doing it, so it was probably old Ken, my elderly pommie good Mate. That car was always one of his nice low milage examples, but he also used to recondition Mopar engines himself when needed before he got too old.
@@bambamfabrications I still have some NOS genuine tensioners in stock.
@@jeffando2121 yeah cool might have to grab 1 for my 265 hemi C1100 International pickup.
@@jeffando2121 yeah she's still got low kays we haven't put much on her either!
G'day Rob can you let me know about the shirts please Cheers
Cheers Mate!! Can you dm me on instagram mate.
Good'day rob how much for 1 large shirt sent to nz can't afford it at the moment just wandering so when i can afford ill grab a couple
Cheers legend $35 plus postage for my new polo shirts mate. DM me on instagram when you want to order mate and I’ll get it happening!
@@bambamfabrications lol I don't have Instagram I have Facebook though most people my age have all of them apart from Facebook

@@she_b_right_mechanics all good mate just reach out through messenger on Facebook that'll be fine, I can find out a rough postage estimate to NZ next week when I'm back in Townsville mate what town and postcode in NZ is it mate?
