Wow! You've done a lot of nice work on that car. One question, and I'm just asking because I've never thought of it before and like to learn. Does Australia make you guys convert cars to right hand drive in order to be able to drive them on the roads? Even if they don't, I would imagine that it would be awkward driving a left hand drive car if you've been used to right hand drive cars all your life. I know it would be hard for me to switch to right hand drive after driving left hand cars since 1973....lol. Keep up the good work!

Hi, you can register left hand drive cars in Australia provided they are over 30 years old. My buddy has a 68 Charger that is still left hand drive and you're right, it's difficult to adjust when you've been driving right hand drive cars your whole life. It's also kinda hard when you go to a drive thru restraunt by yourself.

It'd be easier to just convert the country to left hand drive.


I want my fair share

I would like to know more on how you did this. Would have been a great write up. I do this for usdm cars, but have the jdm parts to do the convert. In for info.

Beautiful Challenger, the color really gleams.
Since Mopars have the engine/transmission shifted to the right side of the car, do you guys shift it to the left when converting to right hand drive?
