C5 RHD CONVERSION

[BERNIE]

I HAVE A C5 VETTE WHICH I NEED CONVERTED TO RHD. THE CONVERSION COMPANY IN QUEENSLAND WANTS TO CHARGE 50,000- DOES ANYONE KNOW OF ANOTHER COMPANY ANYWHERE IN AUSTRALIA WHO DOES IT FOR A REALISTIC PRICE PLEASE

[demonx]

From what I know that's about the going price everywhere - hopefully someone else can chime in that knows more than I.

Count yourself lucky you're not trying to convert a C6 !!!

THANKS FOR THAT TIP. MAKING MY MIND UP TO LEAVE IT IN MEXICO

Bernie, FWIW a C6 will cost you $49,500AUS to be re-engineered to RHD. A C5 should be in the vicinity of $35K+/- tops I would have thought.

FYI, Peter Whiston in Melbourne can do C5's less than you have been quoted, and he won't cut any corners. You can contact him via: http://www.corvetteclinic.com.au/

Bernie, please note: Peter is away until 1st September, so I recommend you wait until then to contact him or his son Kane.
