have asked this question a few times to people and have been told that tickford did some converting on stuff already manufactured ie,leather interiors,aircon and some other stuff,could be one got converted into lhd,the only lhd ones i have seen with my own eyes are touring cars,best was a Ruddi Eggenberger prepared example.
have seen lhd 3drs sold as rs500's by car dealers who dont know what they are talking about,one particular italian one a year and a half ago if someone buys it,thinks its proper,but doesn't know the score,they are going to feel peed off,when people who know put them straight.
50 grand though,thats proper wages!
