Don't hold your breath for a right hand drive Camaro. I understand it was originally planned BY GM, but cancelled to save money. So if you want a Camaro it's gotta be LHD.

This sort of thing has been done in the States. The most difficult way is to take the outer body off of the modern car and drop the Charger body onto the newer floorpan etc...

Hi Sandy, Nice photos bring back memories. It's been a while.
You've just missed a good Mopar Nats a couple of weeks ago. I see your Regal T for sale looking very nice.

It's good to hear from you.... Are you back with us?
