Aussie 79 Monte

Welcome. Good looking car. I am curious about the RHD. Be careful with those tail lights. They might be the only ones left in existence.

Cheers, the taillights are toast unfortunately, cracked and brittle. Got a set of clear lenses on the way

We can certainly find you the license plate surround, and even a stay-down license plate bracket. However, does Australian motor vehicle registry offer a 'tall/narrow' US-shaped plate like the Europeans do? If not, you may have to do some fabbing anyway.

Yep can get USA tall style plates here so should be all good, pocket is the only thing missing on the car except for a bit of side chrome which I was planning on taking off anyway

First RHD in a Gbody i have heard of. Welcome from SW Georgia USA. Nice ride. I shipped a rare rifle mag a few years ago to your part of the world. DHL was the best way to go and the guy had it in under 10 days. Of course it was $75.00 for a part that was about the size of a half a pack of cigarettes

someone put a huge effort into making that RHD dashboard......

Apparently it was done in the USA, wish I knew more about who did it!

No doubt, shipping so far has cost more than the parts I’ve bought even though I’m avoiding the larger items like new interior panels until it’s ready for the road.
