Short answer, yes

None of the US stuff was really main stream manufactured here, so R/H/D dashes only come from R/H/D cars that at best, only a few hundred were ever produced and most
have rusted to oblivion, been chopped up for parts or are somewhere in the middle.

It was the rarity factor that saved my dodge, I had no intention of fixing it, it was to be a donor for r/h/d stuff for my Plymouth

To put it into perspective: There were less 1959 Dodges built as RHD cars than there were convertible Custom Royal D500s.

Biggest problem with selling them now is, the restrictions on having and driving a l/h/d on the road in Australia have been massively relaxed so the "drive" to
convert them now is not as big as it used to be, this is apart from the fact that there might not be anyone wanting or planning a conversion right now.

Not the most common car on the road

So they are really only worth what someone wants to pay and wether they are desperate to do the conversion (who put who over a barrel)

those dashes were used in the 58 and 59 dodge Plymouth and desotos. I have had plenty and only recently picked up one for $50 local for a member.

If it was mine, for 50 bucks, it would stay where it is
