    Welcome to ranch! There's a 65 or 66 sedan up here that hasn't moved for at least 3 years. I've never asked if its for sale, but if you need something, I could pop by. :Welcome:

    Mind you, you've got a better shot at rust-free cars in AZ. :D

    If im not mistaken, thoes older Valants had a hand crank rear window. No power rear slider on them. They like alot of other Chrysler cars were weird body styles. As fr the 70s Valants / Darts, you just couldnt beat that buzzing half dozen, the slant 6 motor were and the best motors ever made. Just industructable ! I had a friend who drove his Valiant with no oil preasure, no coolant and so on and that motor would take the abuse. No wonder why thoes cars were used as police cars and Taxi cabs.
