		Automobile is the most important means of personal transportation for many millions of people around the globeerrands, to visit friends.
		Automobiles enabled farmers to sell their goods faster and farther away, and to travel more often and in greater comfort than ever before.
		Many people believe that the automobile became a practical means of transportation because of, first, the invention of the internal-combustion engine and, second, the development of the pneumatic tire.

	Valiant (automobile) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In Australia, the Valiant was imported and later produced by Chrysler Australia.
		The VH model included the short wheelbase Valiant Charger coupe, the Hemi 6 (some versions producing up to 225 kW/302 hp) proved to be an initial success story, and for a time proved to be the fastest-accelerating car built in Australia.
		Mitsubishi did not renew the Valiant, although there had been some development work in Detroit on project "CM-41," a boxier replacement, reminiscent of the Dodge St. Regis and Plymouth Gran Fury of 1979, that was to have been launched in 1980.

	1960 Plymouth Valiant
		The Valiant also introduced the alternator to the automotive public, as it was the first car to offer one over a generator.
		Valiants also utilized the industry's best automatic transmission at the time, the TorqueFlite, and were the only compact cars to use torsion bars in the front suspension.
		Although Valiants were loved by their owners and served them and many used-car buyers very well, time hasn't exactly been kind to the "collectability factor." Few are restoring them and demand doesn't seem to be increasing.

	Introducing the Valiant: Speeches from 1959
		It is an automobile -- with all the parts and all the ruggedness, performance, safety, comfort, and style you expect in a fine American car.
		In other words, the Valiant is not an imitation of any other automobile or automobiles -- and it is not a compromise in any sense of the word.
		As a result of all this work with smaller cars, when we decided to design and build the Valiant we had behind us a lot of solid research and development relating to the engine, the automatic and manual transmissions, the suspension and many other components that would be needed in a car of this kind.

		Valiant finds an empty seat at the table of one of the guests [soon identified as local gagman Marvin Acme, played by Stubby Kaye] who wears a loud, garish plaid suit-jacket adorned with a red carnation.
		Valiant follows and keeps a discreet distance so that he can overhear their conversation through the door and crouch to spy at them through the keyhole.

	Chrysler - Wikicars

		Valiant was introduced as a division of its own but would become adopted by Plymouth in 1961.
		Alternators would replace generators in the 1960 Valiant and then all of the 1961 models as standard equipment, an industry first.

		Her replacement was '63 push-button Valiant which she still owns along with a station wagon example of the same vintage.
		The Valiant itself was produced until '76 and the powerplant was so well designed and durable that it was used in Chrysler-built cars and trucks well into the '80s.

	Car Trouble \| Dollars & Sense
		The federal government rolled out an asphalt carpet for the automobile: It built the interstate highways that fueled "white flight" to the new suburban sprawl, and carried the new "middle class" on its summer vacations.
		Automobiles pollute the oceans and the air, overheat cities and the earth, devour land and time, produce waste and noise, and cause injury and illness.
		The environmental and public-health problems associated with the automobile have often inspired well-meaning exhortations to car-pool, drive less, or drive smaller cars, as well as dreams of "cars of the future" requiring less material or burning cleaner fuels.

		Becoming the Plymouth Valiant in model year '61, the '60 models are sold by both Chrysler-Plymouth and Dodge dealers.
		The Valiant name was chosen in an internal contest to come up with a new name for the car, which was never as popular as Ford's compact, despite sleeker styling and innovations such as the slant-6 engine.
		Valiant, which spawned a Dodge clone know as the Lancer in model years '61 and '62, and the first Barracuda sporty car in '64, continued as a Plymouth mainstay through model year '76.

		Base engine (other than Valiant) was the 225 Slant Six, already in its fifth season of proving itself a tireless performer.
		Valiant sales were over 251,000, the highest in all its years, partly because of the new Barracuda model.
		Styling was similar to 1963, though a horizontal grille bar with a Valiant medallian in the center was added, and taillights were made vertical in the fenders instead of horizontal.

	Chrysler Australia Valiant AP5 (1963-1964) history, pictures. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		On May 30 1963, Chrysler Australia produced the first Australian manufactured Valiant (as opposed to the 'assembled' R&S Series) - which was known as the AP5.
		Instead of the gear selector being on the steering column, a series of pushbuttons was mounted on the dash to the right side of the steering wheel, which the driver used to engage gears.
		With high local content and a design adapted for local conditions, this 'AP5' Valiant strengthened the brand's position in the marketplace and in November 1963 an AP5 station wagon, or "Safari" was offered.

	History of the Barracuda!
		The fish emblem is not to be seen on this year as the emblem did not debut until 1966, instead the Valiant V is present on the steering wheel, the parking lights covers, and at the base of the rear window.
		Designed with the Valiant platform in mind, the 273 produced 180 horse power, had mechanical lifters, 8.5 to Compression Ratio, and a two barrel carburetor.
		The Valiant script under the trunklid never existed, the heater/vent controls became left-right sliding units, and the automatics had either column or floor shift, even though they used the same "pushbuton" cable A-904 transmission.

		The Valiant range of cars were introduced into the RSA during the very early 60s (earliest I have any knowledge of was a'61 "R" type 2 door).
		The Valiant (in all its RSA guises) was an extremely popular family car and right until the late 80s through early 90s a regular sight on South African roads.
		Valiant sales multiplied at an amazing rate through the '60s, and for most of the decade the Valiant was either the most popular car in ZA or was outsold only by the VW Beetle...

		I think ball joints were one of the known weak spots on Darts and Valiants.
		Darts and Valiants were unitized, which gave them a bit of an advantage.
		I think the old car would "look" pretty good after a crash compared to a modern automobile but that can be deceptive, as new cars are designed to fold up, to be sacrificial, or "written off".

	Early Valiant Barracuda Club - history
		The already popular valiant model had several levels of luxury, so they took the top model, cut the roof and rear trunk area off and added the largest rear window ever seen on an automobile.
		A new instrument cluster and heater controls and the elimination of the Valiant name on the taillight panel rounded out the changes.
		The '65 Barracuda (now a separate model from the Valiant) began life with a Rallye Pack option that included heavy-duty torsion bars (front), leaf springs (rear), front sway bar and shock absorbers.

		The Valiant article features a trunkload of information about the first generation of Valiants and about the chaotic state of Chrysler at that time.
		The article could have used some displays of vintage advertising or other visuals that placed the Valiant within the context of its time, but the NASCAR sidebar helped to mitigate that problem.

	Plymouth (automobile) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab2.tamu.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Plymouth was a marque of automobile based in the United States, marketed by the Chrysler Corporation and DaimlerChrysler from 1928 to 2001.
		Plymouth regained its traditional third place in the sales race in 1971 and 1974, primarily with its popular Valiant and Duster compact models, but as a brand Plymouth was hardest hit by Chrysler's financial woes of the late 1970s.
		Marketing decisions ultimately reduced the Plymouth lineup to the point that it was no longer a full-line make (by the late 1990s, only four cars were sold under the Plymouth marque: the Voyager/Grand Voyager minivan, the Breeze mid-size sedan, the Neon compact car, and the Prowler sports car).
