RHD=right hand drive

[Winfield RED]

Corvette QLD has a few done RHD now, they are just waiting on paper work so they are allowed to register them.

There is a pic, i havent looked at one close yet, so im not sure if the dash is skinned the same as the original version.

[GitRDone]

Here are some pics from Miami to hold yall over till you get that conversion.













the DSOM is mine and the black one is my friend Danny's

[Winfield RED]

They look bloody good mate, i had a look at the right hand drive C6 2 days ago actually, its very much like the original, the only thing i could pick was the dash around the passenger airbag, apart from that they are almost dead on, they had a left hand drive and a right hand drive parked side by side in the showroom.

[scrannel]

Thought I'd pay a visit from Malibu. I take it RHD (which we call wRong Hand Drive) is required in Australia? When I get a chance, will post pic of my C6. Meanwhile, nice to meet you.

Very nice mate - welcome again to our forum!
You might like to post your favourite pics of your car in our C6 Photographs section too.

Very nice to 'meet' you too mate

Yes, all cars UNDER 30 years of age, have to by LAW be converted to 'wRong Hand Drive' here, at least thats the law in all states that I know of, I suspect there MAY be a state which doesn't require it, but I can only speak for Queensland.

Exceptions are if you register a LHD vehicle under 'club registration', which is fairly limiting.

[Winfield RED]

To the best of my knowledge, you cant register them left hand drive for club rego either mate, i tried that heaps of times when i had the 87. Western Australia i think you can register them as leftys, but im not sure on the regulations for it all, just know it can be done there...

[c6vert]

I'm curious as to how the C6 Vette was converted to right hand drive. Today GM is proposing an early end for the C6 and a sooner then later C7 which would be engineered for left or right hand drive

REALLY??? Wow - That's a revelation! Maybe GM is finally seeing extra market ($$$) potential in exporting RHD versions?

There are a few only companies here in AU that are licenced to convert the C6's (Term is RAWS Certified); but C5's and C6's cost a not-so-small-fortune to get done.

PS; WELCOME to our forum!

I'm pretty sure you CAN here in QLD, unless they've changed the regs...I stand corrected if I'm wrong - I'm not an authority on this by any means.

Best check QLD Transport website.

I DID say for vehicle OVER 30 years of age. Has that rule changed?

No mate, not that i know of....
But this is the bit im talking about....

Which you cant unless its over 30 anyway. I tried many many times to see if i could get club rego on my 87 and everytime i got the same answer on it.

...Which takes us BACK to my initial post where I said :

Sorry if I was not clear enough; I was meaning cars 30+ years old can be club registered.

[Winfield RED]

No worries mate, all cars over 30 can be FULLY registered left hand drive.
