Re: Right Hand Drive Conversion
That's turning out great! What steering wheel are you planning on using?

Re: Right Hand Drive Conversion
Looking good. Contemplated doing the same but decided but i'd need a complete new dash and parts are scarce over here as well so leaving as is, nice work though.

Re: Right Hand Drive Conversion
for the last few years in Canada it has been a fad to have a rhd vehicle, or it has been really cheap to bring them over. whatever. anyway, if you want to see a really nice job of converting a 55-59 to a 59 belaire dash check out kabwe's thread. just punch in kabwe or bam's build and see what comes up. not sure what page the dash is on but it is a great thread to read anyway. great fab skills and attitude.

Re: Right Hand Drive Conversion
dsraven, ive been through that build and his turned out really nice! I had considered doing that too, but finding a donor dash was much more difficult then converting the pickup.
Plus i still think the original truck dash look pretty cool |
