Under Constuction! RHD

[Austin?]

RHD.

Here is a few picture of what i'm doing and already done.

I know that there's some of you might not like the way i did this conversion but...........

Clean and simple...IT NOT YOUR CAR!!:boobies:


Measure twice and cut once will do the job.
some you dont know anything about.


I got this dc4 shell for little to nothing and got front clip for $3.

Unless you first handed work on something like this, i dont think that your negative comment matter. have a good day!

all cars all put together by weld and so is this one..

[Austin?]

to a person that dont know what they are doing.. yeah it look kinda scary,.. but i welded this car together and i can trust my life to my welding ability.

Cars are welded yes.....but they are welded where they are welded for a reason. They are never welded where you did yours. I give you props for all that work but I hope you never get into an accident.

IMO a firewall swap is a whole lot safer than putting two halves together... good luck when you get in a wreck

[Austin?]

my ducktape will hold..i paid $3.99 plus tax for it..
that shit better hold

[MongolPup]

Hey I added a poll for you!

[Austin?]

thanks, i think

Looks good man

[slocussvt]

Looks good, wish i had the money to do that to my focus.

One thing i'd like to say, being that i work at a body shop, the way you put the front clip in is unsafe according to i-car standards. You should have overlayed the metal and spliced it together. Not trying to sound like a douche. You did good work, but it's technically unsafe now.

[Drummerboy]

can you explain this $3 front clip thing? that sounds like one of those once in a life time/ right place right time things I'm always looking for.

lol i just noticed the duct tape on the driver side floor. Looks decent.

[dallasb84]

you are supposed to scab the pillar...... not butt them....

there is a few layers of metal in the pillar and you are supposed to splice the layers together..... thats kinda just a nit pick thing and not too important....

but all in all it looks great...


godd job

and that is not enough bondo for the dents..... good luck

[Genji-Sama]

Hmmm....you say you trust your welding, so that's what matters though i don't see a problem unless you smash the back of someone else or get nailed on the new drivers side, in which case your boned anyway, so I'd buy it.

[browningboy7]

People don't ever talk about guys who are bodydropping trucks...Or sectioning rat rods. Those vehicles weren't meant to be cut and welded those ways either but people have been doing it for 30482398 years now.

i mean hes either going to wreck it, sell it, or never finish it....

whats the big deal

Who knows. lol

[Got Milk?]

What a man wouldn't do just to be sitting on the wrong side of a car.

[green91]

RHD Sucks man, a lot of effort to have a vehicle thats miserable/unsafe to drive in the US.

I think you missed my point. Cars are welded and what have you in certain places in order to absorb the force in an accident in a certain way to keep you safe. You have created a weak point in your cars body. Get into a decent wreck and see if that does not break in half and hurt/kill you.
