RHD swap to LHD

[Ceckus]

Hello I have big rust issue. My LJ70 body is very rotten. In Lithuania, these cars are rare and expensive, so to get another shell is a bit tricky. I found another body, but problem is that it's a RHD. I want to buy it and swap it to LHD. So could somebody tell me how difficult it is? Or you just need to drill holes on firewall in left side? Thanks for the answers.

it's not too hard, just be thorough. One way I have seen it done is to remove the whole firewall from the donor and install it in the new, just means a bit more welding that way, but depending on your skills might be the faster way. Other wise you will make some new holes and have to plug some old holes.
