Welcome to the car club for those who enjoy the earliest Valiants and Barracudas that Plymouth produced! We would like to welcome to the club those who enjoy the earliest Lancers and Darts that Dodge produced. After all, produced from 1960 through 1966, they are all "narrow" Early A-Body cars and have alot in common. Membership is free! All you need is an interest in these cars. Owning one is not necessary. More info on the "Club Info" push button. Our chat nite is Friday at 10:00 pm Eastern time. Stop in and share stories with us. Click here to Join us in the Chat Room!
Our club meets annually at The All-Chrysler Nationals in Carlisle, PA! Click Here for more info. The Club Store has Antenna flags and window decals. With help from Cafepress, hats, tee shirts, mugs and more!		Chrysler Engineering is widely regarded as being ahead of their time, when they designed these cars. The Plymouth Valiant has one of the largest trunk spaces ever provided in a compact car. The Plymouth Barracuda's 14.4 square foot glass back window was unlike anything else on the road back in 1964-66. It still is today. The slant 6 and V8 engines are generally thought of as virtually bullet-proof in reliability, and yet with a reasonable level of fuel economy. Never built to their full potential from the factory, some slant 6 engines are now being used for drag racing! The TorqueFlight automatic transmission was (and still is) one of the best: world-renowned for its incredibly durability and silky smooth shifting. The new-for-1962 suspension went nearly unchanged through the last of the Darts and Valiants in 1976. Also ahead of its time, it responds quite well to radial tires and other minor improvements. Club President Roger Kizer reviews a concept discussed at the recent TED confernce about intersections and their associated costs in The Early Valiant and Barracuda Blog. A brighter dash to see your gauges at night is a good thing. See it in the "Projects" section of the Tech Center. We have an expanded list of wiring diagrams to share in the "Specifications" section of Tech Center. The All-Chrysler Nationals in Carlisle, PA. is coming soon.
