Maybe a little later . Late 70s or early 80s. What was the little Dodge/Chrysler? Sporty little thing neat looking. Maybe even had a turbo version I think. Pretty popular.

If I remember right the Valiant was a bigger car. Wasn't the Valiant what the Duster was made from?

Chrysler mostly went to Mitsubishi for their earliest small cars. I think the first subcompact they offered for the US market was the "Colt", which was Mitsubishi manufactured.
