Up for sale is a beautiful 1965 Valiant Signet V8 convertible with Barracuda grill (similar to the rare Acapulco trim model, but I can't say for certain if it's an actual Acapulco.) Originally a California car, this Valiant has spent its entire life in the southwest and is virtually rust-free! (Photos are from Phoenix, just prior to trucking it out to Ohio.) The Mopar 273 V8 is in exceptional running order. Just under 51k miles on the odometer as of this writing.
Asking $13,995.
Over $10k in functional and practical upgrades make this Valiant a worthy daily driver. Upgrades include:
- Power disc brakes
- Electric choke
- New fuel tank, lines and sensor
- New Coker wheels and tires with barely 1k miles on them
- Vintage Air A/C and heat
- Powered front seats w/ integrated 3-point belts
- Reupholstered seats (front & rear, + powered front)
- Direct headlight relays for much brighter night visibility
- New convertible top, door weatherstripping, and window sweeps
- New convertible top hydraulic lines and fluid
- Upgraded rear differential
- Brand new battery
- Exceptional paint job
. . .and more!
Records and receipts are in-hand for all work done in my possession, which is most of the upgrades in the list above outside of the paint job and the top replacement. I've owned this car since 2014 and it's been a blast. A real head-turner. Lots of help received from forum members, too. (Much appreciated!)
Since pictures can be deceiving, the color of the car is nearly identical to Mercedes' Pearl Blue (Perlblau) Metallic.
Is the car perfect? Of course not. If I were to keep it, I'd spend a little on finalizing the interior by replacing the carpet and the door panels. (They're both fine as-is, but new repro parts would complete the look.) The Plymouth nameplate on the hood has a crack in it, and the driver-side headlight trim ring is a little "crinkly." (I can provide photos of both.)
