  1. Growing up in the 60's, I don't recall seeing many Valiant wagons; maybe the Dodge variant, was the Dart??

    1. The one in the photo is Australian and they did have Dodge Dart pedigree at some point.

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

  4. My first car was a puke green '63 Valiant. 225 slant six with 3 in a tree. Traded it in after a short time for my beloved, red '65 Mustang.....
