It received many new accessories and a new spring-staged choke. The Valiant nameplate was placed on the hood of all trim levels and body styles. In the back were new horizontal tail lamps that wrapped around the fender corners.

Distinguishable features included Signet nameplates affixed to the front fender tips. Standard equipment included bucket-type front seats, back-up lights with appliques, and full wheel covers. The convertible top was manually operated and an optional vinyl roof became available on the Hardtop Coupe on December 1st of 1962.
