The images are reversed. Look at the lettering written on the firewall.

LOW DOUGH · 11-02-2009, 05:52 PM

Hmmmm. I see the pics and Yes it does look to be a left hand drive truck.

But this pic has the wrighting on the firewall backwards.

But I can't see how this pic is flipped. I see the wheel on the wrong side but can't wrap my brain around how the pic could be flipped.

dwcsr beet me too it.

probally was a rural mail delivery vehicle

stueber68 · 11-02-2009, 05:58 PM

Sometimes if you scan a photo you have to tell it to reverse the image otherwise it will treat it like mirror. I had a crappy scanner that would do that to me at times.

monte0185 · 11-02-2009, 06:02 PM

To bad!! Id buy it just for uniqueness.

stueber68 · 11-02-2009, 06:08 PM

dwcsr is right. take a second look at the writing on the firewall.

rscam · 11-02-2009, 06:12 PM

I agree with the grill and engine pic. There is no way to flip the interior pic. Its like a mirror will only reverse left to right not up and down.

**mikey531** · 11-02-2009, 06:24 PM

Flipped Interior

dwcsr · 11-02-2009, 06:24 PM

This is reversed from the original post

**mikey531** · 11-02-2009, 06:28 PM

How's this ?

69GMCLonghorn · 11-02-2009, 06:33 PM

SERIOUSLY GUYS?!?! You couldn't see how to flip it to get the right (not WRIGHT) images?? Wow...

LOW DOUGH · 11-02-2009, 06:47 PM

i just couldn't see it for the interior pic. Of course i see it now

I like the bungie coard holding the upper radiator hose

orangek5 · 11-02-2009, 08:35 PM

OK if the camera reverses it when it takes the picture and the scanner reverses it again and the upload reverses it again where does that leave us HMMM?

**special-K** · 11-03-2009, 08:06 AM

What confuses me is the shifter is in the middle either way.

...

*k.t.* · 11-03-2009, 12:28 PM

If you look real close you can see the wipers are set up for left hand drive so they travel in the same direction. If it were a right hand drive the wipers would travel in the opposite direction.

rscam · 11-03-2009, 01:01 PM

69GMClonghorn. I guess I am just not as bright as you. Being that I am from the south. You CA. people have to be smarter than us hicks.

Hey,it`s time to chill.What the guy said may have offended you,and all the others it wasn`t obvious to,but unless you know everyone in California (or the south for that matter) you`re way out of line with that statement.No sense in offending everyone from CA and the south for what one man said.Heck,maybe he`s originally from Georgia.

Let`s all be friendly now.

LOW DOUGH · 11-03-2009, 02:50 PM

WOW! I can't really see the whipers. and if i am seeing them they are correct.

Todd327 · 11-03-2009, 05:00 PM

Dudes! You have a rare British C-10 on your hands. Probably worth a million in E-Bay Dollars.

**truckster** · 11-03-2009, 07:26 PM

Were there any right-hand drive C20s built? Not likely, but let's say there were.

The engine compartment pic is the dead giveaway. They would have to have built a bunch of reversed parts. Just from what I see in the pic, that includes the block (fuel pump is on the wrong side), the water outlet, the heater housing, and the carb inlet.

It seems like an awful lot of work to go to to produce a right-hand drive.

Byronic · 11-03-2009, 07:34 PM

WOW!

Two Identical trucks, One from the English and one From The USA. I say buy them both and you can drive them on any side of the street you want.

I crack me up.

rscam · 11-03-2009, 10:23 PM

SERIOUSLY GUYS?!?! You couldn't see how to flip it to get the right (not WRIGHT) images?? Wow...

With that one little statement he made fun of our intelligence and spelling. Some people must be perfect. I will retract the CA. comment only not to offend the other native. But the hick comment must of us in the south are strangely proud of it.

Please drop this.You are way off base here.I aknowledged his statement may have offended you.But,he never called anyone a hick,you did.He never singled out southerners,you did.You weren`t the only one who he was addressing and all who he is aren`t from the south.It seems you`re taking this a bit too personal..
If you want to discuss this any further please feel free to send me a pm.But,this crap doesn`t belong in this guys thread or in the public view.

prostreetC-10 · 11-04-2009, 01:28 AM

Certainly not right hand drive. Even right hand drive had normal motors with the top radiator hose on the driver's side and the fuel line is backwards too.
