Here's a passion project I got to do with a mate who turned a VH Valiant Regal Sedan into a Pacer Tribute! He modernised it but kept the classic details. This thing is nuts!
Bloody brilliant...That is exactly what I would build too if I had the money. My mum had a string of Regals and Rangers when I was a kid and I was too stupid to appreciate them.
Beast of a thing, they really are a beautiful car and much better than anything the competition had . The engines are way ahead , still drive an old 360 cl regal se that leaves my LS for dead .
Would have loved to have a 360 in some of my past Valiants (mine came with 6's), the 340 was a performance engine & was better because horse power came with revs and it was more of a racing block.
Racing is a completely different ballgame than normal road cars , the 318 coupled with the baby torque flute was a sublime easy running torque monster , it didn’t have to be revved to make fast progress
Had my pacer 38 years mate cool old cars pity more weren't saved valiants were always treated like the poor kid on the street yeah we didn't get the wins at Bathurst but we gave them hell with all 6 cylinders man can't beat that sound of a hemi on a cold cold morning
Nice looking wagons. Never that many around over here in NZ but they were a cool treatment of that nicely styled VH body, and still look great. Well produced video of a lovely example.
I once had a 265 2brl auto vh Pacer that had a 8 & 3/4" lsd, I'd 'load it up' at the lights (in rotorua) & it used to Leap off the line on the green. (Sorry VJ).
