SMOOTH RUNNING 225CI SLANT 6, AUTO TRANS, GREAT AFFORDABLE DROP TOP
CLASSIC! This cool little 1964 Plymouth Valiant convertible is the
kind of car that we rarely see anymore, so we get very excited when
one drives through our doors. And with appealing Light Blue paint,
a slant-six with a quick-shifting automatic, and those unusual good
looks, it's a very affordable way to stand out in a crowd without
needing to resort to big engines and flashy chrome.The push-button
automatic to the left of the dash is a simple and ahead-of its time
design, so it's a no-nonsense feel, but you'll find it easy to get
comfortable behind the wheel. The wide array of dials, knobs, and
switches on the dash is very 1960s and we particularly like the
auxiliary gauges under the dash that provide the driver with the
engine's vitals. In fact, the original gauges have neat silver
bezels that run the length of the dash, a fancy Art Deco touch that
we absolutely love. Nice, right? Don't under-estimate Chrysler's
225 cubic inch slant-6, because in the featherweight Valiant,
performance is surprising. It's smooth and looks very cool sitting
there in the engine bay laying on its side.There's a good hit of
low-end torque and the shifts are very smooth and as you climb the
speedometer. Underneath it's as clean as you'd expect for an
original, budget classic, exhaling through a single exhaust system
with a chambered muffler that has a nice 6-cylinder purr. Drum
brakes at all four corners are plenty for the lightweight little
ragtop and ride quality is great thanks to Chrysler's torsion bar
front suspension. Bright factory wheel covers and 175/80/13
whitewall tires add a correct finishing touch.It's been a very long
time since we've seen one of these, and if you want to attract
attention without spending a fortune. We ship natiowide!!!
