    In the early 1970s, Gavril thought of designing a luxury four-seater sedan. And in mid 1972 The Valiant was made! First only as a sedan but then came a Wagon, Coupe, and even a Ute! The Valiant was a great success.
    It lived on many months. Up to the 1980s. But the production line sadly came to an end when the main housing facility burned down in a fire. After the fire the damage was sadly deemed irreparable and the Valiant faded.
    But it shall live on in BeamNG!

    you'd be surprised how much work went into the Vertex to get it from an Automation mod to where it is now

    the only thing the vertex has in common with an automation car nowadays is the name

    "It lived on many centuries"
    1973-1978
    That's only 5% of a single century lol

    This looks awesome! I love cars like this, as you can see from my signature! (You actually can’t see that anymore…)

    based on that does that mean the plan is to do roughly what the vertex was and kind of use this as the start point but eventually get it to a normal beam.ng mod

    More than that. It took 2 years alone to just remaster it.

    I'm currently trying to figure out how to upgrade the textures to be more realistic.
    like what was done with the vertex.

    I seen the word Valiant and got excited thinking Awesome,
    Finally someone made the Chrysler Australia Chrysler Valiant Charger E49 265c.i 6 cylinder HEMI that V8's couldn't catch (like my profile photo)
    but when I looked at it to see that it wasn't it, I instantly became dissapointed. Maybe one day it'll happen.

    I'll have to check out this mod though once it's released.

    Now I'm trying to figure out how to get multiple cars in one mod folder like the Arima mods.
    And how to post the mod on this page

    No, there was even more work put into remastering it than there was making it a normal mod originally. I phrased that wrong.
