And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two?

The one in the photo is Australian and they did have Dodge Dart pedigree at some point. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plymouth_Valiant#Australia_(1962%E2%80%931981)
That slant six motor had a manifold you could wrap several burritos in foil, drive a certain time (on a trip). Stop, get out pop the hood and have a hot meal. Cheaply for back then. It was also very dependable.

In my country they were branded as Chrysler Valiant, obviously Chrysler being the parent company of Plymouth.
