Nice car but 1969?

1969 in South Africa - our overseas vehicles were different from the American ones. 200.000 South African Rand is 12.956.40 US.

US ‘68 Polara grill, Polara belt line trim, and ‘68 Monaco lower trim. Also same Burgundy Metallic as in Dodge/ Monaco for ‘68. I could see where they may use the tooling for an extra year or so for these markets. Pretty cool though. My favorite color

Dashboard is a 1966 Dodge design not 1968

That's how it worked for some reason - mix and match. They probably already had that 66 dash in RHD, why reinvent the wheel when people would have been delighted to have such a car.

notice how the wipers sweep differently than on a LHD .
i dont think that is an australian market car - there was an australian market RHD Dodge Phoenix but it was a Fury with Dodge badging and dodge dash.

Yes Marko, they were sold by Chrysler South Africa, for the local market. All were 383's

They were sold new here in RHD,....and one or two 4X4 versions. I cut up a RHD Fury for parts for our convertible.
Interesting how the steering box was mounted on the frame rail and not the k frame.
Nice car mate.
