Sorry jamra I dont know anyone down Mexico way but I think it will cost around $15,000+ I think its not worth it unless you really got your heart set on it! Also having it converted doesnt add any value to the vehicle if you ever want to sell it and you lose the $15K. Just my 2c worth.

Why wreck a good car.  I've been in American cars for nearly 30 years and I haven't seen a decent RHD conversion yet.

May I ask why you want to convert such a classic to RHD?

Don't do it! Nothing looks more pathetic than an American car converted to RHD. It becomes just another car.
