Detailed BJ74 LHD Conversion
OK, I am about halfway through my BJ74 LHD conversion, so I actually have some progress to post.
To answer ALL of the first questions out of your mouths...why?
The basic answer is because I can. The more involved answer is: You know those people who say they are restoring a 1969 Malibu in their garage, and that it is their weekend project? Well I don't have a 1969 Malibu, but I do have a RHD BJ74. More importantly I also have a rusted out body from my old Canadian BJ70 (I sold the engine and the tranny to two other Mud members). I was also looking for a project to keep me busy so I could putter away in the garage.
Also, it'll be cool.
Satisfied?
In the three pictures below is the leftover body from my BJ70, what it looked like without the firewall, and the firewall itself.
