Custom Mopar ????

[Bamamav]

That would be awkward to me. Would be more natural on the right . But Mopar put the pushbutton shifters on that side, too, so I guess it's normal.

About like the Renault my pa in law had, the turn signal switch was the right stalk, the left was the wiper. Every time I drove it, I was constantly turning the wipers on when I turned!

I think it will be good, Bama.
I drove RHD cars Many times and they all had sticks. I learned to shift left handed quite quickly.
The Mopar seemed to have the shift handle/buttons all over the place.
You are correct about most of the push button shifters being on that side. Although at the last some of them were on the RH side too..... who knows?
Quirky things, these Mopars.

Every Renault driver should do the Bob W. thing. Drag race it in nice weather conditions only

You can't go wrong when it looks so right.
Just make sure you don't mount it upside done and really get confused.
Looking good Torchie stay after it.

Had my right arm in a sling for awhile once while we lived in Brazil - LHD car with floor shift. Hold the wheel with my knee, reach across & shift w/ the left hand.

Lol. As my Dr told me when they cut off my leg. “ You will figure out a way to drive. People always do.”
You and I proved him right. Neto.😎😎😎

Got the PS upper hinge off the donor. It's better but not there yet. I'm going to have to but some hinge pins and press them in.
Put the custom up on dollies too.
Getting time to be able to park the daily in the shop again.
I also pulled out the bent up 49 Plymouth rear bumper I have. I'm going to need it to cut out a piece to make one of the bumpers longer for the front end.
The pile of parts if a completely balanced rotating assembly for the "Old school"301 My friend and I are building for his 64 Chevelle.
That's it from here.
Keep on keeping on.....

Your getting it done

Torchie, you have achieved "The Look". Gene Winfield would give you two thumbs up. Although your pooch doesn't seem too impressed. Suggestion: send a pic of the car to Bad Chad. He could learn from zz's Packard and your car.

Thanks gang😎
bob.
Our friend Chad has been getting it kind of rough lately. I see he spent an entire episode defending him self and his builds . I felt bad for the guy.......
He doesn’t need me and ZZ piled on top.🙀
I’m happy with the overall looks of the car.
I’m not happy with my lack of progress.
I’m going to order another 4x8 of 18 gauge tomorrow. Once that gets here it’s back to the floor.
