Aha, but then the "year one" sticker would be back to front.

Yea, RHD conversion. Looks to be pretty well done too... Steering shaft goes through to the box which now sits on the other side of the engine bay.

It has brought about other problems, particularly with the "tuning" side of things...

That begun long ago. This project has been on the back burner for 2 years now.

Not for much longer though...

I really like that in the state it's in! 3rd gens seem to be the future old muscle car :) Starting to see more G-bodies and fox body mustangs being done up in the states as street racer type cars/ A few alterations and they look pretty mean!

How to post pics: When writing a message, scroll down and use the "attach file" option. Where possible, a photo sharing service can be used such as Flickr, Imgur etc. The image location (usually ending in .jpg) can be copy and pasted between the ][ brackets that appear when you click the 'Img' button (you can find this button at the top of the message box).

How to post youtube vids: Click on the 'youtubeHD' button at the top of the message box and in the middle of the ][ brackets that just appeared, copy and paste everything from the youtube web address that appears after the = sign i.e if this is the url: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2cNqaPSHv0 just copy "K2cNqaPSHv0").
