A couple of handy parts companies in oz. That Mopar Market site is excellent aswell, and Ebay.com.au is good for finding rare Val bits too.

That History of UK Aussie Chryslers is good. The 2 door Chrysler you have is known as the 'Chrysler by Chrysler CH Hardtop'.It is the 2 door version for the 4 door Chrysler by Chrysler CH that Sandy posted a pic of. It was offered before the Charger was released as a luxury 2 door coupe to head the range up. However when the Charger was released it was left in the weeds as far as sales were concerned. Only 480 were sold, there was no CJ when the range changed in April 73.
The Valiant VH Hardtop was based on the Valiant range and was therefore cheaper and not as well equipped. I think it had a shorter wheelbase aswell but having never seen one I can't confirm that. They sold a few more of these (910) and there was a VJ Hardtop offered in April 73 of which 1060 were sold.

MOPAR - Move Over Power Arriving Rapidly
Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy My brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay My Mopar upon you
