    Welcome aboard. I love the Valiant wagons from Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. None are quite the same as anything offered in the US (except the earliest 61-62 S & R models). I saw a 68 Valiant VE wagon at the Mopar Nationals in Ohio a few years ago and decided right then that I one day would like a VE wagon of my own.

    Nice wagon Grinter and welcome aboard. Are the Valiant wagons as rare over there as they are here?

    hey guys, another NZ wag owner, by the way we started calling our group of cars and people the 'wagoneers' before realising the car of the same name haha.

    my names manu, i have a '64 falcon (XM), spend most of my spare time lying under cars and working towards the next wagoneer roadtrip.

    here are some pics..
