Picture No.1 This is as we brought
it home, left-hook and lots to do.
No. 2. Part way through the conversion, I
moved the master cylinder over to make it mirror reverse under the
hood. Those bronze pieces we only used as a template as they were too
heavy and we made our own pieces up out of sheet metal, took about 3
weeks to make.
No. 3. The white box section is engineer
approved double row chain drive, fits onto the rag joint on the
steering box and has a uni joint on column side for swingaway wheel.
This setup allows the use of original steering and suspension parts
and retain original steering geometry.
Outer steering column has to be cut so as
swingaway mechanism is underneath to let it slide to the left.

No.4. The finished product, the
wheel in swingaway position you can see by the odometer and 0 to 120
that it is not a reversed negative.
No.5. Wheel in the normal driving
position, for me anyway.
No.6. Overall view of the dash.
