Didn’t know this was a thing…

“In July 1969, Chrysler South Africa introduced a rebadged locally built version of the Dodge Monaco as the Chrysler 383. This badge remained in use for about four years, being dropped in early 1973. This was the first time that they had used the "Chrysler" badge on a locally built product in ten years. It was also one of the biggest cars built there, and had the biggest engine as well.[6] The 383 ci V8 offered 290 hp (216 kW), and the fully equipped car featured power windows and a standard vinyl roof.”

That's just weird. Not liking the "utility trailer" wheels.

It is/was! @Walter Joy has a thread on the topic. Nice find, I have added a link there to your post here.

Agreed, It would look a heckuva lot better with some proper Mopar Steelies with the '69-71 Dodge Division Caps, but maybe with the Dodge being replaced with Chrysler as a nice touch.

Prior to last year I had no idea about them. Fortunately I got connected with an owner of a 1973 383 and he was able to help me with information for my page. They are really quirky
