Move to New Zealand. My 77 is still LH drive and its a real original vette.:chevy:

Not only do we still have left hand drive we won the super 12 and will win the world cup (Rugby for you US vetteophiles).:jester:

Still the exchange rate is a killer 58c US per NZ $1.:cry:

What costs $1 in the US costs almost $2 NZ and Aussie isnt that much better off.:cry: :cry:

We must be dedicated...( Aussie & NZ rule :) :hurray:

:cool: :cool: :cool:

Us Aussies and you Kiwis are dedicated (or is that Confirmed?) Corvette Nuts!
If I had bought my car recently I could have left it LHD. The rules have changed!
As for the AUS $, We are at .65US at the moment and climbing. It may be .70 US by the time we get there for the 50th! :hurray: :hurray: :hurray:

Who cares for Rugby anyway? :boxing :U

Man thats one hell of a job you did :thumbs: I wish I had your talent theres no way I would have touched that big of a job unless I wanted my vette in pieces for the next 20 yrs. :cheers:

As for that list jeez it looks like LHD is in the minority I always thought it was just 3 or 4 country too that had RHD
