G'day everyone
I thought I should post up some pictures of my 95 bird. Its got the LT1 with a 4speed auto, 17inch wheels, lowered, aftermarket exhaust system, strut brace, clear indicators, and ofcourse she is right hand drive. It was converted from left to right when it came overhere in the late 90's. The car was originally green but was totally resprayed to this 1 off purple. Its an awesome car, gets plenty of looks. Nothing beats American Muscle!

Thanks for the comments!
Theres not many 4th generation F-Body's getting around overhere. The latest model
Lt1 ive seen driving around was a 97 Transam. There is a couple LS1 camaro's but thats about it. There is quite alot of older Firebird's and Camaro's driving around, but there still a rare sight to see. If you want to drive a left hand drive car, it has to be older then 25years, or something like that. Alot of older American muscle such as 60's and 70's Mustang's, Corvette's etc are LHD. All modern muscle cars like mine have no choice but to be converted.
Thanks guys for your interest.

Which way does your toilet water go when you flush, clockwise or counter clockwise? Just Kidding. Nice car. :usa:

Same color of my car. I like what you've done with it. I saw one with black zr1's on it, but I like yours a bit better.

But his runs :yup:
Kidding, Dre.
Wow, thats one amazing looking formula you have there AussieLT1! Its personally so weird seeing a 4thgen dash switched over to RHD. Actually, its hard to imagine any car we're used to over here switched over like that.
Great car, and have fun with it!

I think it would be crazy to drive a car with the steering wheel on the opposite side of the car. Def take some getting used to!

Has to be 25 years or older? Thats weird... cause here its not illegal to drive a right hand drive vehicle.... <shrugs> in fact when I was a car dealer we had a jeep that was RHD for sale....

Yeh the rules regarding the age of the car are pointless. Unfortunatly there is no exceptions with new cars, but there is a good number of older American muscle getting around that remain LHD. Thanks for your comment, cheers

Thanks for all the comments guys,
Yeh I do get alot of looks as these types of cars are very rare overhere. There is a good amount of classic American muscle getting around, but not much modern stuff.
The wheels are by Wheelboyz, 17x8 fronts and 17.9.5 rears. They do suit the car nicely I think, but I would get wider ones on the back if I had the chance to get new ones again.
Cheers guys for the feedback :-)

ya know, a car like yours would look sexy with a late 4th gen front-end swap and some late-4th gen rear lights.
i really love the color and the interior is tRiPpY!
