You almost had me fooled, until I say "BATMOBILE" spelled as "ELIBOMTAB" on the dash-mat, and "FIREHAWK" spelled as "KWAHERIF" on the ground effects...

I really thought someone had converted it to right-hand drive for a sec... some eccentric British millionaire maybe?

touche on the spelling catch. i think that most people, including myself, would have looked over that due to the fact they were confused as hell on how and why that would be done. im not gonna lie though. ive always wanted a rhd car. just cause its different.

Its not 1 of 0, its 1 outa a thousand firehawks that has been modded. As far as I know NO F-bodies came from the factory RHD. But there are companies that you can bring cars to covert them.

The first thing I looked for was for backwards text and it took me a minute to make out what word it was; seriously, who calls Firebirds batmobilles?

Anyone notice how crappy that paint looks? That's some crazy orange peel.

Didn't realize you were posting your own car, sorry bout the comment. Just saying that it could use a wet sand to smooth out the paint.

That's pathetic mate. Why bother posting this?

Anyway...your right Starz, no F-bodys were produced RHD, same goes with Corvettes and most other US cars that are in a similar category. There actually is a small amount of 4th gens here in OZ that are RHD. During the mid to late 90s there was a company here in my city that soley converted them, and this was where my car got converted. The company no longer exists unfortunatly (due to a number of reasons, one being new government regualtions). There are plenty of 3rd gens getting around, some look great and are well looked after, some are just ratshit due to neglect. But as I said earlier in the other RHD disscussion post, there's plenty of original 1st gen F-bodys, 60-70s Vettes, Mustangs, and Mopars that remain LHD due to their age.
