If anyone notices anything else non-gen let me know, havent really looked in to many Avengers. Also the Chrysler chassis plate confused me.

Chrysler (Europe) took over the Rootes group in 1967 (from wiki).

What confused you about the chrysler-ness? They look like the right plates for the car, and as daver555 said, Chrysler owned the rootes group. My 1976 Hillman Imp is Chrysler-plated.
Zotez - nope, totally different. Similar style maybe, but the 180 (and 2L) are bigger and much, much rarer.
I guess that the toyota engine has been fitted after it was bought - not a clue as to what it is.
Only you can answer whether or not you need it. I don't know about importing it - though I'm sure it's been done.

I like that Avenger, It has a nice touch of shitness about it like the beaded seat cover and the sticker on the back.
Are those dials normal for an Avenger?, They look very 80's Japanese to me.

Chrysler (MK2) Avenger

I'm positive that dash is out of something made by Chrysler Europe, but I'm not sure that it's the right one for an Avenger. Looks to me more like a Chrysler Alpine dash - though I wouldn't have thought they would be easily interchangeable. Alpine interior I don't recognise the steering wheel though and the instruments aren't ringing any bells.

the peykan was fitted with differing engines when it was built in iran.. maybe when the thais started building avengers they used running gear-instrumentation from something else.. I never seen a rootes with a low petrol light before !!!

Has nobody seen the MK2 avenger interior I posted? Yes, but it's not the same - the mk 2 Avenger dash looks like it has round air vents, not the rectangular ones on the Thai car. I'm sure it's a cut and shut dash top with the avenger badge stuck on - look at the gap between the cowling around the steering column and what looks like a block of wood between the cowling and the bottom of the facia in the shot of the pedals. I reckon the dash is off a Toyota Tercel
