1976 Chrysler Valiant Regal review from Australia and New Zealand
"This is the best car ever made in Australia"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Normal wear & tear only.
Ball joints have been replaced.
Front brake discs and rear drums.
I always replace the oil filter when I do an oil change.
General comments?
This is a great car. It is reliable, comfortable, smooth and has great performance.
The 360 has great torque, teams well with the Torqueflite auto transmission and the 2.77 final drive.
The seats are very comfortable and there is plenty of interior room.
The Val handles very well, sitting on 7" wide alloy wheels with good tyres and gas dampers (shock absorbers) are fitted.
