    What to do with a 65 Valiant that won't sell

    I'm thinking of stopping trying to sell my 65 Valiant after lots of calls but no sales even after lowering the price so far down I couldn't believe it. I know it's not a Barracuda or even a V8 2 Door Signet. But it would be nice brought back to what it was once. The coolest thing to me was that...

    Where's the best place to put up a 65 Valiant 200 for sale?

    I'm not putting this up for sale yet. Just want some advice. I'm going to sell my 1965 Plymouth Valiant 200 4 door. I've put a good bit of money into. I'm sure more than I will ever get out of it and you can't even tell. It needs a lot of rust repair. Floor pans being the most important which I...

    Can anyone provide a part number for a 65 Valiant gas cap?

    I need a new gas cap for my 65 Valiant. I don't think there is a new aftermarket one available that actually fits the car. I've seen a lot of Valiant with the old aftermarket Stant S curve chrome caps. But I notice there are several of those old part numbers that look identical depending on...

    Can't get turn signal bulbs in or out?

    I guess this is common being a 1965 Valiant. My original turn signals work but I need to change one bulb but I can't get in a new bulb. I got some spare signals on eBay and the bulbs are frozen too in the sockets. I can obviously get the old bulbs out but the spring inside the socket must be...

    Should I keep my 65 Valiant or my 73 Charger?

    I've gotten too many Mopars to fund and repair. I've got this 1965 Valiant 4 Door Sedan, 1973 Dodge Charger, 1986 Plymouth Reliant and 1999 Dodge Dakota R/T. Ultimately my goal is to be able to drive my 65 Valiant or 73 Charger to my local car shows and not have to worry about a breakdown no...

    Received long awaited 1965 build record from Chrysler Historical

    I finally got back my build record from Chrysler Historical. I was strongly disappointed. I can't believe I paid that much. I communicated before I decided to order but wasn't told that it would be totally illegible. I've got part of the broadcast sheet that was under the seat but it's so torn...

    What gas cap will fit on my 65 Valiant?

    I don't want to end up paying $50-$100 for a fuel cap on this junky 65 Valiant I got. I just need a fuel cap that will fit. Maybe if I end up getting the body restored then I would go for one of those nice new original caps. I just need something that will work but all I can find is a 67+ which...

    I've got a 170 in my 65 Valiant and currently it has the small 6 inch air cleaner and air filter on it running the original type Holley 1920.

    My 65 Valiant ammeter melted down

    I was doing a carb tune and the car stalled, so I went to restart the car and nothing happened at all. I noticed the dome light was off and also none of the lights or accessories worked.

    65 Valiant cowl antenna hole, is there a grommet?

    On my 65 Valiant where the antenna cable goes through the cowl should there be a grommet there? It looks like there is some type of tar material around the edges of the hole but no grommet. It's leaking through the antenna hole when it rains. I looked in the 65 parts catalog and even the 73...

    Is something missing off my 65 gas pedal?

    I'm now replacing the carpet in my 65 Valiant. I removed the gas pedal from the floorboard today. I unhooked the rod going to the accelerator shaft and it looks like something should be missing off the gas pedal. In the pedal itself where the rod connects to the back of the rubber pedal, the rod...

    Need help decoding 65 Valiant broadcast sheet

    While I was pulling out my 65 interior for refurbishment I found a partially complete broadcast sheet for my car. I'm having a hard time decoding even the simple codes.

    Finally today with a reman carb and some distributor adjustment my 65 Valiant 170 started up and ran good. I drove it around our big driveway and it runs smooth and quiet.

    65 Valiant window sticker reproduction questions

    I got the window sticker for my 73 Charger reproduced by window-sticker.com. It was nice. I was thinking about doing it for my 65 Valiant 200 as I'm getting it closer to getting it on the road.

    65 Valiant fender tag question about radio options?

    So my fender tag on my 65 Valiant is pretty simple. I didn't find a broadcast sheet in the back seat or under the dash, not even any pieces of it. I still have to remove the front seat to get the carpet, but doubting it's under there either. So all I have is the fender tag to go by to put this...

    How do you get door latch rods back in rear door?

    I took out one side of my rear door latches on my 65 Valiant 4door to free them up from sticking. I cleaned and oiled them good. It was pretty tough getting them out but I can't even get them back in at all. I tried for 1:30pm-5:30pm and could not get it back in. I tried removing the window...

    Need pics of 65 Valiant heater cables at the box

    I tried to do right this time unlike I did on my 73 Charger. I took pictures of the cable ends at the heater box on my 65 Valiant before I removed them.
