Anyone know if there’s any price difference ordering from Australia rather than America?

I guess you would have to say what type of item you are thinking of buying.

Might have to pay import duty and a customs handling charge ...

Same duty and tax if its above the threshold. Maybe see which exchange rate is better? Keep in mind you may well pay vat and duty on shipping, which could be higher coming from Oz than the US. 

 

I have an Australian Muscle car and ship parts from Oz and the US fairly regularly.

No. 

 

Chrysler are/where the parent company of Dodge, Plymouth, DeSoto and Valiant. They are collectively known as Mopars. A few more but you get the idea. Valiant and Chrysler where what was available and built in Oz. Some of the Valiants available from 1967 to around 1971 where basically US copies but the Aussies wanted a fully Australian car and the Valiant Charger was born. The Valiant Charger is built on the the smaller USA 'A' Body platform the same as Barracuda's, Darts, and Dusters. Where as the Dodge Charger is built on the 'B' Body platform the same as Satalites, Road Runners, Super Bee's.

 

The only thing really relating the Valiant Charger is some of the engine choices, Transmission Choices and the badge Script that says Charger.
