RHD oval parts WTB but where
How common are the RHD ovals in your area?
If I wanted to purchase RHD oval parts where do I look?
Is there suppliers in Australia that sale NEW repo parts for the RHDs?
Like all the dealers here, they all carry parts that are LHD.

Dash cut after all???
I figured they all were RHD sorry if it read otherwise.
Do you guys have part suppliers that carry a vast selection of RHD parts? Sorry to ask so many questions I am just curious, I'll never learn if I
don't ask!

What do you mean RHD parts......??
Basically it's only pedals, pitman arm, the front beam has a few different bits on it (dampner mount, steering box guides) and the dash. On early
cars the bonnet pull is on the left, even the exterior door lock should be on the left.

Your right a dumbass question in my part.
Should've thought it out before posting. I'm in the works of making a deal with col on some pedals. But say I wanted to buy a new set or a new
pitman arm who carries new parts like that, are they available? "pedal set" who could I order the new pitman arm from?
Do you have a oval dash clip??????

I have a neighbour with an oval dash clip. Not sure if it's for sale though. There were two 60's dash clips advertised here only a week or two ago.
Cheap too. Col is here with me now, he works with me which is why he can't get to his own parts stash. They are 1 3/4 hr away, even with a 2332 IDA
bug.

Pitman arm should be easy, used, not so easy new. I prefer original equipment where possible, so new isn't always the best anyway.

Brandon, you could try Eric Jones.....he's in L.A. Eric has a '56 RHD oval, and is a 'bonzer bloke'. I've purchased some RHD rubber floor mats,
and other parts, and found him good to deal with. Contact......ericj@thelabelcompany.com
I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!

Cole
Sounds good, Im really more concerned with the pedals you may have!!
Matt
As for the guy in the states, all thes guys want a fortune for RHD parts, thats why I found this forum. I'd rather deal with you guys directly.
you guys are way better to deal with trust me.
I'm lookin at buying a 53' ragtop with semiphores, really rough but I think it would make a nice RHD rat. If I could find a cheap clip.
I like the RHD, like to be different and it attracts a lot of attention.
LOL

Not cheap! Fair. These guys in the states are with the RHD parts are like all the hot rodder guys. Want a fortune for everything.
Dealing straight with you guys there is no bull crap. You guys deal with these parts daily and know your stuff. This way I feel more comfortable with
what I'm gettin and having shipped a few thousand miles.
Plus I really like the OG kangaroo stamp on there parts.
So if it come out I want something for nothin I'm sorry. I'm willing to pay for the parts and the time. Because time is money correct.
