Man, that just looks wierd.
That's different... I wasn't even aware RHD T-Birds existed. If it's an aftermarket conversion it's a ed good one...
Huh...well I'll be darned...
"Oooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhh!" :hick:
shift button is on the wrong side. Slick looking car though.
Look how long those A/C lines are, and the heater box is on the driver's side. The master cylinder is on the passenger side so they would've had to run all new brake line too. It looks like they installed the floor shifter to deal with the shift linkage problems of keeping it on the column. And then there's the dash wiring issues. That definitely would've taken a lot of work and $$$$ to convert.
That has to be aftermarket. AFAIK NO T-birds were exported outside of the US, Canada, or Mexico.
still has the foot well rubber on the left side....
......and some wear and tear where the gas pedal USED to be.
Draw your attention to the dash.....It appears to be pieced. There is a vertical line along the wood grain next to the vent to the left of the tripminder/clock.
i dont recall my bumper sticking out as much as the one on that car
Does anyone know what Aussie VINs look like? That looks to me like a US ID. Too bad it doesn't have an Aussie motor as well.
It actually doesn't say it was built that way. The title of the auction says..."FORD THUNDERBIRD 1983 IN AUSTRAILA FROM 1989", it appears as if it has only been in Australia since '89. Maybe someone imported it, and changed it. :D
Yeah good point. Neat though, sure is unique.
looks like its loaded as well. Digi dash and all.
