1963 Plymouth Valiant Dealer Promo Film

[@michaeltutty1540]

I love seeing the American Valiant. In Canada, we did not get the Dart until 65, so our Valiant in 63 and 64 used the Dart body with the Valiant front clip. In fact, once we got the Dart, Valiant sales fell because the Dart was just that much more roomy for an extremely small up charge.

My Dad had a Valiant with a three on the tree. Great little car!

0:58 That Studebaker Lark is a '62 model. Lark was the class in the compact field when introduced in model year 1959 and carried major advantages over competing models through the end of production in March of 1966.

My dad had a stripped-down '63 Valiant. It's one of the first cars I remember riding in. The darker Valiant with the Signet trim in this video had features that my dad's car didn't, like the split bench seat. My dad's looked more like the mud-caked white Valiant, without the mud, of course. Perhaps because it was a second car, my dad never pampered the Valiant. For instance, we took it down an unpaved, rocky, muddy road into an abandoned quarry, where we went skeet shooting, quite a bit. The white paint weathered quite a bit through the years. The light blue, fairly Spartan interior held up well. It was a mix of vinyl and cloth, flecked with black dots, if I remember correctly. I don't recall any carpet. I think my dad put a lot of mostly trouble-free mileage on the Valiant commuting and traveling for work, but I don't remember how much. It got totaled before I reached driving age. He replaced the Valiant with a Dodge Polara, which was larger, bigger and much nicer, but not as trouble-free.

Same here, except theirs was dark blue; my folks' first-ever brand new car. Slant six, three on the tree, power nothin', two-door with dog dish hubcaps and no radio. At least it had a heater. It lasted for years; my siblings and I all learned to drive in it.

Great upload! I've got a similiar version of this film, but the first three minutes are completely different...this is really fantastc, the first three minutes is the best part!!!!

[@paulotoole989]

I liked the "clown car" at 6:54. A clown car has two different body styles on one vehicle. The drivers side is a Signet 200 two-door hardtop, while the passengers side is a four-door sedan. You can see the pillar and the rear door stationary vent window through the outline of the car. Great video.

Priceless! Where on earth did you find this? I love it.

I'm currently building a 63 Plymouth Valiant Signet 200 and have many plans for it

[@rightlanehog3151]

To coin a phrase, I pity the poor fools who picked a Corvair, Falcon, Rambler, Comet or Lark over a Valiant in 1963. 🤣

[@GailUrge-vq6qn]

Why didn't Viola get into the 63' Nova?.

[@danpatterson8009]

A thing of its time, I suppose, but it tells you blessed little about the car.

[@teresa67factoid95]

Still have my 63 valiant convertible

[@barrycuda3769]

They forgot to mention "and only Valiant has the steering wheel that will crack at the base of the spokes within a year " 🙂

Using Beautiful Women to Sell Cars! Brilliant 👍

[@johang7498]

"To be frank", this generation of valiant was quite nice-looking. Not as much so as corvair, though. If I were in the early 1960s and faced with choosing a new compact, that would always be my choice.

[@mattw8332]

I prefer the look of the 1960-62 Valiant.

[@Greatdome99]

A vast improvement over the poor-selling, awkward styled 1961-62 versions

[@douglasb.1203]

Swing a ding ding.

Left out Chevy II

[@barrycuda3769]

Iv'e always wondered, why were they chevy ll ? Wasnt it a Nova?

[@g0989]

@@barrycuda3769 Nova was the deluxe trim version of the Chevy II, until the late 1960s, when the Chevy II name was dropped, and they were all called Nova, from then on.

[@barrycuda3769]

@@g0989 Thanks for that, but why "Chevy 2" ,what does the 2 signify? .

[@pl5624]

@@barrycuda3769 they wanted to forget corvair I guess and call it chevys 2nd size of car.remember mid size chevelle didn't come until 64.

[@gordonvincent731]

@@g0989 I believe with the new body style in 1968 is when they dropped the Chevy 2 name.

THE MOST ANNOYING VIDEO ANYBODY HAS COME UP WITH YET! Like Tiny Tim, a migraine headache, and a root canal all in one. The '63 Valiant was an excellent car. It deserved a far better promo!

[@loveisall5520]

This is in poor taste even for 1963. I remember all of these cars well because I grew up then. They were all fine cars, including the valiant.

[@nigelgoodwin6954]

Worst strap line of all time! “Beast value compact anyone has come up with yet”. Really?
