well from what I have found the pads screw to the bases right. I found the bases new and there is nothing wrong with the pads so I guess I need the bases and then paint them car color. I dont know. I never had a 66 Valiant. I just got it home and both bases are broken. do you have 2 bases

I do not, but the bases are easy to find, think most new ones are chrome but that would look nice unless you still wanted to paint them. The originals are fragile, not sure how strong the new ones are. And yes, the pads screw to them. My 66 Valiant 100 has the short bases, they are the same length as the rear ones in the Barracuda...Barracuda had 2 sizes. On your car...are the front the same size as the rear?

I’m thinking these would work, the pads are different on some having the ashtrays. Just need to measure the length of base

Either measure the old bases or the imprint of the base on the door panel to get the correct ones. Usually, the 4 doors use the shorter bases on the front and rear. The 2dr's use the longer ones on the front, but, it might also depend on the trim line of the car. Signets and Barracudas came with chromed plastic bases. Most of the other models came with colored plastic bases. The ash tray versions go in the rear....solid ones up front.

My 66 100 2-door sedan has no rears and short ones up front
this one is a 200.I have not measured them yet. I have been busy on the Corvette.
ok, thanks for the info
I measured them today and it looks like the fronts are 9 1/2 " and the back s are 10". I dont know if that is supposed to be right. I think I saw somewhere that they should be 9 & 11"
I just measured these and the front and back are the same size. It looks like the same bases. the pads are 9". Only difference is the ash tray in the back. The distance from the front screw that holds them on to the window crank is 2". I dont know how you could put any bigger ones on here. Overall length is 10". which ones do you have that fits these measurements.
I can get 4 chrome bases from Classic industries. do you have 2 front pads that are 9" long for the 10" bases that are in good condition. I can stain them the color I want. And if you have 2 of the 10" bases that is plastic for the front , I can paint them but if not I can get all 4 bases chromed from Classic.

yep, I have a complete set, black. As is standard with the Valiant, both front and back use the 9” bases and pads, which is what I have. I have the other 2 black bases not pictured here, but the silver ones in the pic were better so I put them with the group.
I need the small base 10" base and 9" pad for pass front door. I think maybe the one in the middle of top row would do if it measures out right.
