Chryslers first real market attempt in Australia was in 1959 when they sold Chrysler Royals, it sold poorly compared to the Holden. In 1962 Chrysler Australia assembled the Plymouth,Valiant 'R' series and just called them Valiants. It floored the competition, The Holden and Ford at the time put out 56 hp and 90hp respectivly, the Valiant put out 145 hp, very good for 1962. Moving up to 1969 Chrysler brought out the VF model it had a squarer body. A two door version was made at the same time looking very similar to the dart. Chrysler pulled the pin in Australia in 1980, Mitsubishi sold the last few Valiant remaining until stocks were exhausted, and that was the end of that

Valiants ROCK. If I didn't have a Corolla, I'd probably want a Valiant.

Mmm, Valiant...

 

 

Mmm, Chicken...

Used to have a Charger, man that thing was a thumper i spent big bucks on the drivetrain,it was a 265 running monster tripple 45mm side draught webbers,11-1 comp ,crow cam with 520'' lift and a massive 302 degrees duration. Ran a 13.8 @ 109 mph. Wish id never sold it, i might get rid of the EL Fairmont and get another one! ;)
