I thought that was a Valiant in Furiousa!

If you poke around enough you can find Mad Max Furiousa on YouTube. 3/4 of the way through I spied this thing.

Is there a more versatile classic car than a Plymouth Valiant? Maybe, but we argue that list is short. It’s no surprise that the Valiant would survive in the post-apocalyptic world of Mad Max. Furiosa and her partner Praetorian Jack both take a run in this desert hot rod with a slant-6 boosted engine. Fun fact: Furiosa actress Anya Taylor-Joy learned to stunt drive in the very Valiant used in the film.

Being in Australia, it could have been a Chrysler Valiant.

It's a 62 Valiant Signet 200.

YEP, anyone need a mint trunk trim ring for one? Pulled a complete assembly from one when I was 14... 1976.

I may be a minority here but I think that's one fugly car.

I don't think you're in the minority on that thought.

I used to think it was fugly, still do, but I find it darn cool looking.
Those fins are large, the tail lights point ever so slightly towards the outside, interior is cool too, bucket seats, hardtop, rides beautifully down the road, great little car.

I have the same opinion. The early 60s Mopars were not that attractive in my opinion either.
The engineering was great but the bodies were hard to like.

The first Mopar I drove was similar, so I'm a bit biased. I fall in the fugly but cool camp. But I counted the days until I could plant myself in a GTX. The weight distribution with 170 cube slant six was great. With the unit body and torsion bar suspension, those things handled better than just about anything else in their era.
