What a nice auto...love that blue dashboard!!
I've only ever seen black dashboards on our NZ assembled Hillman Avengers...maybe because many interior parts like the carpets, seats, door panels, hood lining, etc. were made here to boost Kiwi employment...lol

Awesome looking Avenger Top hat.

What was the deal with the top hat model? was it just the paint job and vinyl roof or did it have any go faster bits on it? I see it is an Auto.

In NZ we never got any of the special edition Avengers, I hear there is also a limited edition "Avenger Sunseeker"

Were they all just special paint jobs etc, because Valiant Australia did the same with the Valiant Chargers like the White Knight Special and Drifter. Both were just fancy paint jobs.

White Knight Special



Drifter


1975 Hillman Avenger 1300 Super, 1972 Chrysler Valiant Charger 770, 1980 Chrysler Avenger 1.3GL
