Show your slant 6 a body!

'VC' is the Australian Chrysler 1966 /1967 model.
came as a sedan, wagoon or ute, slant six or 273 V8 ('standard' was the basic no heater manual three on tree or 'regal', which was auto with heater / demist and split-bench seats)
it's pretty much the same as your '66 Valiants (signet / 'cuda etc) as far as the the hip-line from nose to tail, but different grill and lights and we never got the 2-door.
oh, and we sit on the correct side of the car, giving heaps of room to fit long-primary extractors and stuff . . .

Thanks for the explanation! I had heard that "VC" name bandied about from other Aussies, but always wondered what it meant.

Was there a "Barracuda" body in Oz on 1964-'66?

Insofar as "we sit on the correct side of the car, giving heaps of room to fit long-primary extractors and stuff . . ."

Well, most folks are right-handed, and that arrangement puts them to having to work the 4-speed floor-shifter with their LEFT hand, not the most expeditious idea... plus, turbos don't have any use for "long extractors" and if you're running a slant six without one (turbo,) to say that you could be going faster is an understatement.

So, the "correct side of the car" is a matter of opinion, I think...:violent1:

Here's a picture of an appropriate "long extractor".... LOL!
