ROTTING MUSCLECARS

Anyone know what this is? Early 60's Valiant with a V8, was that possible? I could see it was a stick on the floor, not sure if it was a 4 spd though. Couldn't get any closer, scary place where it's at.

Dave, that looks like a Valiant with the small block V8. Not up to par on old Mopars, but my best guess is a 65/66ish with a 283(?). Go ahead Mopar guys, beat me up. I'm just guessing.

273

Looks like a Satellite to me; no RR hood and a base Satellite grille.

The Valiant above is a 66.

The green car above is a 71 Satellite.

the valiant is a 65 NOT a 66..
66 has larger taillight centers, NO return crest on front fenders, and a diff grille to start with. 66 had a heavier rear bumper and no bullet extensions on quarter panels.
engine in 65 would have been solid cam 273. NO bb til 68 when chassis was widened,
This is a 66 A-Body

383 debuted in 1967, not 1968. The 340 came out in 1968, however.
