Hairy Canary 1966 Valiant Help

[jjsipes]

Been thinking about purchasing this resin kit from Speed City Resin and was wondering if anybody had any detail pictures of this car? I have found exterior shots but would like engine and interior if possible.

That's a tough one...I've got lots of pics of that but none of the engine nor interior. There were a few incarnations of this, unblown, blown, different engine setbacks, etc. The pic you've posted seems to be circa 1968 blown with the engine low and setback in the chassis. Here's a pic of the engine in my model, which has a resin body mastered by the son of Williamson, one of the owners of the original car. You might also get ahold of him at hairycanaryracing.com or hairycanaryjr@aol.com

E-mailed Rick Williamson and he got back to me. He is out of town right now but, he said that he had some other pictures and some old magazine articles that has pics of interior. Thanks for the lead Glenn.

That's great Jason! I don't know Rick but heard he's a good guy.
