Right Hand Drive ZL1 Photos

Hi All:
Some of you wanted to see some pickys of my RHD ZL1. The shop did an excellent job at the RHD conversion, you would not even know it was originally LHD except for the foot rest which now sits on the passenger side. I love the handbrake next to the driver as well, I don't know how you guys reach over the console to engage it (I am very lazy). Here are a few of the highlights. It was bone stock when I got it. I installed all the bling, the stripe package and the interior and boot lighting. Also reversed that ridiculous key recall that GM did. The best part of my day is driving to and from work!!
Cheers,
Terry
PS Mechanically, I have installed a CAI, M2W, VMax and Elite catch can, and have a Lingenfelter 650hp kit sitting in the shed ready to bolt up under the bonnet (just waiting on the damper which did not arrive with my other parts).
PPS I have never seen another ZL1 in Queensland Australia, I am sure there are one or two around but they are as rare as hens teeth. Given the rarity, I get photos and videos taken on the street all the time. It cracks me up!

Excellent! Now you can give those ZL1 motor UTE's some competition. My friend and his wife are headed your way for a month holiday....jealous.

This is a huge conversion. The IP is a small portion of getting the brakes and steering all moved over.
