Awesome '65 Valiant/Barracuda hardtop wagon

The coolest thing about this car, for me, is that it's a one-of-none built out of a one-of-almost-none. A '64 Canadian Valiant wagon ('64 Dart tail treatment, US '64 Valiant dashboard, "VALIANT" nose badge) was the basis.

Sharp eye! It actually looks like a Canadian '64 Valiant wagon was the basis. Makes sense with the Ontario plates too..
There's something strange going on with that front valance. Looks like the outer parts of the opening are filled in and only the radiator area open.

I wasn't aware that the Canadian 64's used the US Valiant dash.
In '65 the Canadians had both Dart and Valiant based Valiants but used the Dart dash in all of them.
I have a Canadian 65 Valiant 100 4-door myself. Very similar to the US version but it has the US '65 Dart dash and the "VALIANT" nose badge among other details.
