electra225 ◊ 2011-04-04 22:24	CougarTim is right about a canadian built Dodge
nzcarnerd ◊ 2011-04-04 22:57	It may not necessarilty be Canadian. Here in NZ our Dodge Kingsways were Detroit-built. If you check the serial number lists for Dodge there is a gap each year of a few thousand in the sequence which they used for the export cars. I agree that plodges are confusing - we had them sourced from Canada, the US and Australia. There is also thought that our 1952 DeSoto Diplomats came from Belgium as several I have seen have Belgian markings on the window glass. -- Last edit: 2011-04-04 23:01:26
