Hi lads just joined hope this in the right section... Anyhow I had a few novas myself many years ago but would love another again 15 years later.. the story is my Spanish mate has a lhd corsa gt it pretty mint but as I say it's lhd I'm thinking off buying it and would like to convert it to rhd is this possible is there anyone that could do it that you no off ? Or is the cost off doing it just be the same as buying a rhd sr ? Any help would be great cheers kirk...

its possible but the bulkhead is differnent. So its not a straight swap. Apart from that, if you have a donor RHD car then its pretty straight forward.

converting a car would almost certainly be easier than the pain of welding a rotten sh1tbox UK project car.

Just leave it LHD,

you our would need to cut out steering column mounts, accelerator pedal mount and replace them, modified bulkhead for RHD rack, mounts and cut holes for brake pedal bar,

and my pet hate, cut scuttle panel to change wipers to RHD if you want it done right,

its easier just to take a mate in the passenger seat when going to maccy D's
