Ugh---looking at the steering wheel and brake booster on the wrong side made my head hurt.

My mailman would dig that. Were these factory built for export or did someone convert it?

This is one of the coolest and unusual things I've seen in a while but I wouldn't know whether to sh#t or go blind if I had to drive it...good thing it's not a 4 speed !! It looks way to complicated to convert this...how the hell did they do it ? Did they sell it like this new ? Wouldn't it be on the PHS docs if it was converted new ?

I'm in love. I think that is the neatest car I have seen in a long time. Anyone know a good way to check to see if it is legit?

This brings up a good question....what was the origional idea that made cars built for and in the USA to be left hand drive? All the old westerns show wagon and stage coach drivers sitting on the right hand side. Just a thought.

If this was a 4-speed GTO, it would be a bitch to shift with the left hand, and use the clutch at the same time.

Those silly furriners. ... I never understood the whole right hand drive thing.... is it that the rest of the world is bass-akwards or it it just us?

btw, I remember seeing an article once that these cars were converted by specialty companies (after being exported I believe) by flip flopping the existing parts and fabbing up what was needed.. I think it was fairly detailed with photos..etc how this was all done.. I can't remember exactly what vehicles were shown, I'm thinking it was early 70s Mustang or Firebird??? I haven't a clue what publication I saw it in.. Maybe one of the Muscle Car mags?? Does this ring a bell for anyone else??
