1966 Chrysler Valiant VC review from Australia and New Zealand
"A bargain for the price, had very little rust. $400"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I purchased the car the brakes were faulty, however I repaired them at the place of purchase.
Welsh plugs leaked.
Spark plug oil seals were perished.
General comments?
Changed the front drum brakes to unassisted disk. Much better braking.
The car never came with seat belts, so I thought I was rather cool flaunting the law for awhile. Until I realized what would happen in an accident, then I thought I was just stupid. :-)
