Default Right hand drive Vette

I was just googleing for a C5 with sidepipes and found a very nicely done conversion to Right hand drive.






You can fab the dash, move the pedals and steering wheel. But how would you fix the steering rack to the right hand side? I'd like to see detailed pictures of that. Even the windshield wipers.

Thanks for sharing. Too bad the Europeans get taxed up to their eyeballs on gas, making our beloved car too expensive to own over there. Otherwise, this may have not been such a rarity.
