Is that Plymouth Valiant? ![]() |

Interesting. Has the diagonal front fender side crease of a Valiant but the rear fender of a Dart. Another export hybrid? -- Last edit: 2011-05-09 15:23:06 |

I think it is a 1964 Plymouyth Valiant built in Canada. Here is a 2-door hard top version of those Canadian "Dartiants": http://www.flickr.com/photos/carphotosbyrichard/3154262604/ |

Indeed there may be Canadian variant out there. Link to "en.wikipedia.org" |

I gather from http://www.valiant.org/canada.html and http://www.allpar.com/history/canada-todgham.html that Canadian-built Valiants remained a separate make until 1967. -- Last edit: 2011-05-09 19:03:05 |

Yes Canadian Valiants were a hybrid of US Valiant front sheetmetal and US Dart bodies. |

so what would the model name be if Valiant is the make? |

Canadian Valiants used the same model names as the 1960 US Valiants: V-100 and V-200 (also Signet later on). As noted in the link provided by rjluna2, they were built in Windsor, Ontario, up to the end of the 1966 model year. -- Last edit: 2011-05-10 18:42:00 |
