secretagent09: I thought you guys might enjoy seeing these funny looking cars that have been modified in some of the strangest ways. I can't post each one individually so please don't be afraid to click on the link. My personal favorite is the big car with very tiny wheels.


Thanks M! wave

This one in your lineup is cool

Did you go through all of them? What do you think of the car that I like with the tiny wheels?

My new 2nd and last wife rode with me once on my yamaha vmax on the boulevard intown for 4 blocks and afterwards said, “you are putting this monster up for sale, right?” Of course I probably should not have tested the redline on the vmax’s tack at 9300 rpm while she was riding with me. I did manage to keep the front wheel on the ground through the first three gears. laugh

Interesting the fuel fill and steering wheel are on the wrong side of the vehicle for the states. And i didnt think they allowed high performance cars in England. devil

Okay, so I asked my dad about the mirror thing & he said because they "weren't stock." I don't think that really answers the question though. laugh Maybe it does, I dunno ... dunno

Makes me think the drivers back then were more frugal and just liked their vehicles stock-like.

Thanks for asking. You are always so cool wave

I've seen pics flipped before, but I'm not sure if that's the way it would look.. drinking

People have done conversions in Australia, but according to this, Chevy never built a factory RHD until now... dunno

It took them only 66 years and an eighth generation, but Chevrolet has finally engineered the Corvette with a right-hand-drive layout. The C8 is the very first ‘Vette to come in a RHD setup straight from the factory, which makes it more appealing for those driving on the wrong left side of the road: Australia, Japan, U.K., and the lot... laugh

First year for optional RHD... wow ...

Good looking car... dancing

On that blue vette, I was just saying that maybe the pic had been flipped around somehow.. No idea how they do that..
