This 1964 AP5 Valiant is finished in pale blue over a blue vinyl interior, with the odometer currently indicating 69,098 miles*. Power comes from the 225-cubic-inch Slant Six engine paired to a push-button automatic transmission. The AP5 Valiant was the first of Chrysler Australia’s second-generation Valiants, introduced in 1963 with revised styling, improved build quality and a reputation for reliability. This example retains its original drivetrain and features four-wheel drum brakes as well as a working auto choke for smooth cold starts.

In largely original condition aside from some paintwork, this Valiant presents with a level of patina consistent with its age and history. It remains very presentable overall and is reported to drive like new. It has had three owners from new, with the first owner’s original paper driver’s licence still in the glove box. This Valiant has been maintained for many years by Barry of Dinkum Auto in Moorabbin, who serviced the car for both the original owner and the current custodian. In early 2024, it completed a road trip from Victoria to Port MacDonnell in South Australia with four occupants without fault.

The front bench seat upholstery requires attention, the seat belts need replacing, and both front and rear bumper bars would benefit from rechroming. Corrosion is present in two small rust spots noted by the seller, with additional corrosion visible on some exterior and other components in the supplied photography.

Overall, this is a very good and well-preserved AP5 Valiant that retains its period charm and would suit an enthusiast looking to enjoy its originality or take it on as a light restoration project.
