                  I actually laughed out loud at work because of this today. I feel we would get along just fine.

                  Most drive-thru's are out of the question in this car, depending on the age of the pavement, most are rutted too bad and I either get stuck or get questioned about those "god-awful noises my car made".

                  Stupid thing.

                  Anyways, went out to the shop tonight, for once I am actually excited to work on the car. I set out to get the subframe and steering rack switched around, including switching my N-body control arms into the RHD subframe.

                  LHD out back, RHD up front.



                  Switcheroo all finished:



                  I think installed it in the car and decided that working on the car for an hour tops was not near enough for tonight. So, I turned my attention to the inside again.

                  With machine like precision, and four zip-ties, I temporarily hung that bracket I removed last night and bolted in a steering column. From there I eye-balled it up and tightened everything down, and installed more dash parts to make this more a reality for myself.













                  After the blood left my penis and returned to my head, I crawled under the dash and measured up some brackets to attach that column bracket back to the firewall. I should've definitely done that while the dash was out.

                  Tomorrow's goal is to get the column mounted square, solidly, and have the bracketry welded in for good.

                  Thursday I plan to have the hole cut in the firewall, which, at this point I feel will need no major modification to do. Quite excited.

                  Definitely on track to have this thing steering itself by the weekend.

                  • I'll be damned. I never thought I would see a RHD Cavalier.

                    That's sexy.

                            • You gonna leave the column switches in LHD config for hilarity sake?

                              I'm loving the progress this has made just in the last couple weeks.

                              • JBO must be having a shit fit over this..

                                "Durr your steering column will not be mounted right and will kill you".. Or some garbage to that effect.


                                Please carry on.
