Here is a picture of the Valiant 100 that I bought on Ebay. The car has 64K original miles on the odometer and the 273 ci V-8 engine with a 3 speed automatic transmission.

It was owned previously by a elderly woman (who is 90 years old now) who sold it to her daughter, who drove the car for the last several years. I purchased the car in Midland Park, New Jersey.

Since I purchased it, I have had to replace and update some things. I recently replaced the headlights, power steering pump, power steering pressure hose, and a few minor things (windshield w iper blades, etc) I am awaiting a replacement stock radio for the car as well as an antenna. I was able to find a restored AM thumbwheel radio online from a small company in North Carolina.

The car runs really well for the age of it. It has some minor rust spots around the wheel wells and the passenger side front fender. I am also waiting to upgrade the wheelcovers to the deluxe wheelcovers that were offered on the Valiant Signet, (13 inch cover with a "gear-like" pattern that says "Plymouth Division" around the center of the cap. I will try to keep you posted on my progress.
