About this car
The Valiant was Chrysler's early-1960s compact, and it looked like nothing else on the road, with its distinctive grille and sweeping body lines. This 1962 S is powered by the 3.7-litre slant-six, here paired with an automatic gearbox, and the page quotes 145 bhp and a 0-60mph time of 12.5 seconds.
It is finished in black over a burgundy and cream interior, with the period dashboard, push-button controls and chrome detailing intact. The car is described as restored, with a few sympathetic upgrades.
The odometer reads 33,000 miles. It is a rare sight in the UK, and a cheaper alternative to the more familiar American V8 classics of the period.
