Re: 67 Right Hand Drive
Cool, but is he asking 27 THOUSAND dollars? or does he mean 2700? I know it is unusual, but I don't think 27000 dollars unusual.

Re: 67 Right Hand Drive
He must have Barrett/Jackson syndrome really bad if it's $27,000.00 for it.It is unique and would be cool to cruise since most folks would freak when the truck passed with no driver but a passenger.I would want to see documentation that it is real.

Re: 67 Right Hand Drive
I'm pretty sure the factory didn't build any right hand drive trucks either ... dude is smokin' crack on the price.

Re: 67 Right Hand Drive
I agree.Why would they want an open bed truck to deliver mail.Wouldn`t the mail get wet?

Re: 67 Right Hand Drive
I thought they sold our trucks over seas and some were right hand drive, isn't that why the clusters and the glove box can be interchangeable? So maybe one made it back home, correct me if I am wrong but I think I read that somewhere on this site

Re: 67 Right Hand Drive
they made right hand drive trucks... but I don't think the sheet metal on the outside was the same as US spec trucks.

Re: 67 Right Hand Drive
I have seen some 67-72s in South Africa that were right hand drive.

Re: 67 Right Hand Drive
Even if it`s authentic the truck isn`t in 5 digit condition.One odd feature is only worth so much over the overall worth of the rest of the truck.Certainly doesn`t make it worth 10x more.Is that paint over the paint divider chrome at the base of the top?What does a roll of masking tape cost?

Re: 67 Right Hand Drive
I live in Kaufman too. I might call them and go check it out, just out of curiousity. $27,000 is definitely reaching for the moon. But if anyone's seriously interested, it's close for me to run by and take some pics.

Re: 67 Right Hand Drive
I think it is a legit truck, look at the cowl and the wiper arm. I would not pay $27K.

Re: 67 Right Hand Drive
What "is" up with the wipers?I wonder why they won`t park(only one) and it looks like they both would operate center-out.

Re: 67 Right Hand Drive
Even if it was a factory right hand drive, the original motor is gone, along with who knows what else. 27K? Smoke another one

Re: 67 Right Hand Drive
They are factory. Look under your cowl panel, and you will see the mounting locations for the right hand drive wiper pivots. Those 'assembly manuals' show some of the right hand drive parts.

Re: 67 Right Hand Drive
What year and what pages are these right hand parts shown on in the assembly manual.
