Very nice build. Do you have any photos of the chassis work in progress?
Thank You.
The chassis work was done approx. 15 years ago by a very good local shop.
Unfortunately, this was before smart phones, so there were not too many progress shots.
Looking good . Do you have to change it to right hand drive or is that just something you wanted ?
Picture yourself in America, on a two lane blacktop.
You are on the RHD side of the car, and you need to overtake a big truck on the left......how is your visibility?
This is the exact reverse down here.
Technically, I could just drive it LHD, but being on the opposite side to everyone else in traffic is just weird.
I threw in my job and started my own business in 2017....just starting to really rumble now.
I bought a couple of Super Rare RHD cabs for this last year, so I will get around to putting a stock dash in.
Last week, a friend called about a truck that "I just HAD to come and look at".....
So I bought this....
