What is this— my gut says Chrysler/Plymouth/something, but I’m coming up empty. Very late-50s refrigerator. The badge is killing me.

Valiant of some sort - recognize the badge ...

I thought Valiant or Volare or something, but couldn’t get a solid match in like 30 seconds of GIS.

Badge is right, tails aren’t. Super close.

I think just a different year - back then they changed ‘em every year.

And Volare/Aspen was one of the horror shows of the 70s ... we all still feel the pain.

And there was a model called the Signet, which you should check out - higher end Valiant I believe.

The badge and chrome strip I believe put this as a 1965 model.

In ‘66 the badge was slightly different and the chrome stop said Plymouth, ‘67 the trunk shape changed.

It’s (as Steve suggests) a ‘64 Valiant, but it’s not the base model. It’s a Signet 200.
Hence the difference in lights, ‘63 stamping trunk lid (!), and aluminum trim. ‘60s Mopar was a very strange place - many models had light and parts mashup insanity going on.

Yep, Signet 200, which for some reason seems to use the ‘63 version of the trunk as well as the light and trim differences.

They can be pretty.
