Finally making a bit of progress on my Coupe so I thought I'd post a few pics...

Bought some new wheels and tires, 14x7 Konig Rewinds with Potenza RE71s...
Open in new window


Test fitting them on the car to see if the flares are going to clear (and couldn't resist a bit of p-shop lowering, too )...
Open in new window


Going to do a bit more body work in the next few weeks, and get my RHD conversion finished. More pics to follow

That is going to be one sweet ride my friend.
One question why the RHD conversion and where did you get all the bits you need.

Technically that's two questions.

Why? To be different, I guess. There are no other RHD 1200s in the states I would bet. And I thought it would be cool.

Where? Kind of a freak deal actually... A friend imported a ute from South Africa that was RHD. He wanted it to be LHD, so since it was hit hard in the front he cut the front clip off and welded on a US sedan front clip. So he had a complete dash/pedals/etc just laying around that I am using for my conversion. Since his steering box was crushed in the wreck, I got another gearbox and center link from a datsun1200 forum member in Japan, from a junkyard there.

I hope so. I got the right formula I think... hugger orange paint, those wheels, ground-scraping stance, and full race interior.
