Right on man! I'm glad to see other countries on here. I've seen some truly cool old cars in my travels.

“well-used-but-still-looked-after" definitely fits my car. Myself n the last to owners loved her and looking at overall shape, she was loved n enjoyed.
Luckily, Chrysler didn't forget about little old us down here. They sold Furys here as the Dodge Phoenix. Initially, they were based on the Dodge Dart Phoenix, then the Dodge Dart, then the Dodge 440, then 65 and onwards it finally settled upon being the equivalent year Fury. All were complete knock down kits that were then reassembled locally, with RHD. Dashboards were based on the 66 Polara, but the speedo was still in miles since this was a few years before we went metric. Only offered in four door versions, the sedan top got the 318, hard top got the 383.
I've seen a few aussie owners comment about the yanks getting a kick out of seeing a "RHD fury" haha.
I've got a 67 year model but the engine is currently being rebuilt, will definitely post more pics when it's running. It will definitely not be a garage queen.
