hi
we make the dashs from scratch youlld be hard pressed to find a rhd one
depending on where you live
theres jerry wa will make one not cheap
me for arround $2500 for dash you send me car we do it in the car the only way for mirror image hand made glove box door and all metal job in primer
why in car as you have to have the steering column there hole in front to set upright angles and stuff and pedal set you do to save $ you have the vent cables to swap and hood release lots of things to do later models have gas cap release its not a straight forward as some think hense some prices
not sure how much for b.holden in NSW with all the 70 models
not to mention the whole job would cost arround $5000
ask them if that helps dont know of anyone else that can help you if we cant no one can


cheers

My ex had one done by Holden over here but it was part of a full resto - not sure on the $ of just the RHD conversion but it all looked 'factory'

karmen ·

may know of one

will check if you u2u me what price u want it for
I owned the car ..it is now a donor
for a crash car to be restoed

dash is good (needs new padding (top &handle)

seagull ·

Um



PAUL needs it , not me

Price , there is NO way on Earth I would let him pay $2500.00 for a dash conversion
Thats madness

I knock one up my self from an old rusty jam tin lid & a few spam tins

my dad imported a 55 beetle in 57 and converted steer and pedals but not dash

not too hard to see in an unclttered instrument panel of a narrow beetle
was certainly a novel dash!!
