Pretty sweet!! Won't see many of those at the shows!!

Nice work there

Seems like that would take some practice and concentration, shifting with your left arm.

Keep the progress pics coming.

Thanks Captainfab, the left hand shift is also a twin stick I made for the 3 speed. the short shifter is for 1st and reverse and the tall shifter is for 2nd and 3rd. I gonna do pool balls for the knobs a 6 and a 2 for 1962...........

Left hand shifting is the norm over here it feels just as easy as right hand shifting nb: all my cars were right hand drive this 64 of mine is the first left hand drive car I,ve had and had no trouble shifting. The thing that gets me and this can be on any car is the indicator lever position left or right I,ve on many a windscreen wiper just to turn a corner
Lookin good there cap n crunch

Hi, can you tell me please, is that the original steering box just mounted on the other side of the chassis? were there any major issues with changing it to RHD.

Thanks

Very nice work! I see you used a later model booster/MC, Just curious how you hooked up clutch master cylinder and what is it off of? want to do the same thing to my 62 and keep the 235/5 speed in it with hydrolic clutch.

Very cool!

Here's one option for you.......
