Would be a simple job to convert to rhd, find one in a scrappy and get the bits, all the holes will be there for changing the dash and seats over


You must be simple if you think it would be that easy.

But maybe you should buy it and show us how it's done.

You'll need a WAV sooner or later anyway.

All you would require is the steering wrack, a rhd dash the clocks would swap over you may need the loom also, to change the ramp over just lift the floor as it bolts down and swap it over, the drivers seat will also change over all the holes will be there some of them may have blanking plates welded or just have rubber grommets in, dont forget they where made here and there will most definitely be some in the scrappy you can get the bits from
what a half baked moron you are Jimbo, sit and think before you put your half a brain in gear :roll: :roll:
Don't forget you will also have to change the chassis ...... :oops:


Total c rap MR T you should know better, why should the chassis need swapped the only 2 hard bits is the steering wrack, and you might just get away with just turning it from left to right then slotting the steering column back into it on the right hand side???? and the dash and wiring
I had a LHD Ford taurus in Germany in the late 70s early 80s and that's all I did to make it RHD when I brought it over here, got everything I needed from a cortina
It has a separate chassis .... it has a steering box that is made to fit on the offside of the chassis.... the chassis has a locating bracket which is made to fit a offside steering box. the chassis is drilled and has tubing through the middle so that it will not compress when tightened..... so everything that is on a left-hand drive TX will not fit on a right hand..
