News Clip: Council, Fire
Video footage from the WBAP-TV station in Fort Worth, Texas, to accompany a news story about a fire in Irving, Texas, that destroyed one home, damaged a second, started a grass fire in surrounding fields, and sent a burning station wagon driving off by itself - officials suspect the car was in reverse gear and that the fire somehow shorted the ignition, allowing the car to start. Also includes a story about dissatisfaction with some phases of the Fort Worth, Texas, city budget of almost 22-and-a-half million dollars, the highest budget in Fort Worth history at that time.

The Valiant was also built and marketed worldwide and was well known for its excellent durability and reliability and became one of Chrysler's best-selling automobiles. The Valiant was originally designed by Virgil Exner as a competitor in the then-new compact car market which included the popular VW Beetle, the new American Motors Rambler and upcoming entries from GM, Ford and Studebaker. Exner's design was smaller and lighter than a full-size car but did not sacrifice passenger and luggage space.<p><p>We encourage viewers to add comments and, especially, to provide additional information about our videos by adding a comment!
