Is amazing how the article doesn't mention Venezuela where Chrysler got also a plant but building same cars than USA with same names. Just the diff the Dart last long one year more than USA. Chrysler plant in Vzla began in mids 50s

On 71-74 period Plymouth was gone and plain janes Darts with 225 were badged as Valiant while 318s with mid and premiun options where badged as Dart

That is very cool.

I've always been a fan of the F bodies. With traditional small blocks, they respond to all the same mods as earlier cars and can be just as fast.

Someone should mess with the Moparts establishment and post a picture of the late '70s Brazilian Charger based on the late '60s A body.

Ya know, it just really pleases me that Chrysler was up to this sorta thing. Just because we can't sell fun cars in the US, doesn't mean we cant' sell fun cars.

I really dig those F bodies, and never knew they made a Super Bee version in Mexico (instead of the Road Runner). I'd love a t-top 2dr Volare for sure.

My thoughts too...paint the bumpers body color, and would look pretty close to a GN


Plymouth Makes It!
