Here is a few pic’s of my 68 firebird that I have just imported to Melbourne, Australia
It has the following options:
Power brakes, Disk brakes, Power steering, A/c, Tilt steering, Rear folding seat, Tacho, Cruise control (not on PHS doc) Rally gauges and Power windows (not on PHS doc).
Over all the car needs paint, some rust removed in the lower rear quarter and has a problem with the starter but all can be fixed!!
It is an original Californian car with the black and yellow plates.
So far I have only driven it a few times (due to the starter motor) but love every second of it!!

Right on! Looks good, enjoy it. If you don't mind me asking, what's it cost to ship something "down under" and how long did it take?

Nice car, mine is also a black plated California car.
Do you still have the air pump in the engine?

nice! esp. now when you dont need to convert to RH steering anymore!

Welcome! Nice fgf!

Nice start! Did you change to LH steering lately. that makes it easy!

Thanks All!!
Going to keep it left drive as we are allowed drive LH cars older than 30 years on our roads.
I have driven other LH drive cars before but I'm still getting use to it, I'v opened the wrong door many times now only to relise the wheel is on the other side!
As for the air pump do you mean a smog pump? if so it's not there.
I am missing the a/c compressor and manifold. I can get the compressor localy but if anyone have a manifold there would like to sell let me know.

Nice ride dude!

I drove a RH car a few times, very weird, shifting gears with your left hand... I would keep it this way, LOL.

I drove a RH FIAT in Sweden a few times , (my buddys car)...and shifting with left hand wasnt so strange , but my brain kept reversing the shift patterns....they dont change..but my brain wanted it to be mirror imaged

Sounds like you're finally getting to enjoy the payoff for all the waiting time. So you didn't have to put on the rally's after all to get it through?
