because back in the 70's. Mr. Joerli had a new idea for the "base" vette to feature a international look and thought that putting the steering wheel on the right side would make it appeal a little more.
actually thats entirely false and I have no clue hahaComment

In the movie, the kid (Mark Hamill...i.e. Luke Skywalker) does all the customization to the car as a high school shop project...and one of the goofy things they decide to do is convert it over to RH drive.Originally posted by MP81 View Post

Never saw the movie
That is NOT a very good looking vette. And the Bird definitely looks better in red (my humble little opinion).
How do you guys like what I've done with the interior?
It WILL be ready for the bash.
Check out my 68 Caddy Convertible. I'm painting it mineral gray.Last edited by ScareBird; April 23rd, 2008, 09:17 PM.sigpicScareBirdComment
