Here's an unusual option package on a well-known car.
Can you name both?

Not a Valiant (or a Dart for that matter).

That dash and door panel reminds me of the early 80's Jeep Cherokee, is this the commercial "Plain Jane" seating option?

Looks more taxi than cop, so Im going for a 1979 Dodge Aspen with Taxi package.

Now that I have had more time to search, this looks very much like the Heavy Commercial Duty plain interior for the original Chrysler K-cars, Reliant and Aries, I think it was called the "Scout Car" trim package for police patrol vehicles.

That's exactly what I was looking for.
This is the Reliant / Aries "Scout Car" package, introduced for 1982.
