Huh, I'm not sure what to make of this./

I'm intrigued with the engineering but wondering who/why?

Is this a GM export prototype or someone with amazing talent, too much time and lots of money?

Someone in OZ would be thrilled to own this!

Some countries will not let you import a LHD automobile.

Super clean car...I don't know .I don't think I can ever get used to driving on the left side of the road if I go abroad....There would be that one time late at night where I'm tired and the next thing I see are two headlights coming at me...Yikes !!!

The only problem I ever had with a right hand drive vehicle was the tollbooths!
Here in Connecticut we drive on the Right!
Brooklyn New York, sometimes I don't know!

The Australians do a wonderful job of converting cars to right-hand drive. Definately not the only one in the world, but maybe the only one here in the US. This would be a great car for someone in a right-hand drive country.

Here's a photo of John Magyar's old 1991 ZR-1 from the ZR-1 Net Registry Gallery. He has since sold it and had his C6 ZR-1 converted to right-hand drive.







Regards,
Mark

Oh those silly Aussies!! Well, someone spent a huge chunk of money back in the day to do this. I had no idea they drove left handed down under......See you learn something new everyday. Very clean Beast anyway.

Australia drives in the left lane, as does the UK, Jamaica and most British colonies. Driving in Jamaica is crazy! I saw a motorcyclist slide underneath a bus on a roundabout, pick his bike up and continue on. He managed to avoid the bus tires.

Most likely came from AUS but how it made its way to the U.S. who knows. There's a few right hand Zs over there. Didn't read the text,what's the price? They should no problem selling it,someone will buy it and but it in a museum. As far as I know GM never made any Corvette right hand drive.
