Location: Hickory, NC | I'm sure they want a ton of cash for it. Hard to say that a car has such low miles after 3 different owners. But it does look nice. They obviously don't know their engines...that is definitely a Poly 318. Interesting car with the clock and spider caps but no radio.
I did note the 318 bypass hose is silver which is correct for a factory install as those hoses were on the engine prior to paint. So the hose has never been replaced it seems. That may help in the 8k mile claim. |

Location: Pacific Northwest | The '62 Valiant in the back ground is pretty nice too. I'm thinking the owner of both vehicles brought them in on consignment.

Location: Houston | They were great cars...but the early Lancers and Valiants sure had some...styling...issues. The 63 Valiant, on the other hand, is an all around great car. |

"styling issues"... thats what i call understatement. the early valliants are about as aesthical pleasing as a purulent pimple.

Also, the heater hoses on the right side are factory, with the grooves, I’ve seen these with a white stripe on them as well. The radiator cap, upper rad hose, battery hold down, spare tire all look factory. |
