RHD California 450sel

[beagle2022]

I found this one on Australian Gumtree.  A right hand drive Californian 450sel. http://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/belrose/cars-vans-utes/mercedes-benz-450sel/1119123385

Only one in existence I suspect.

Look at the side to which the wipers lie, and the position of the brake booster.  It was originally a LHD thats been converted.

"It was professionally converted to right hand drive before my father bought it." as per the ad.
That implies a complete firewall transplant, doesn't it? That's some job!

well said PT!
young bloke just selling his dads car probably has no idea. a car with a tired history, converted, the low power 450 engine - sorry, not worth much. those bumpers, if i had been benz i would have refused and pulled the pin rather than those abominations! interestingly my colleague showed me a car he bought a few weeks back yesterday, a german LHD convert to RHD here in west australia, had been done reasonably well and was a nice car. i had previously bought a LHD to RHD 6.9 for not too much that i wrecked (#902) so there are certainly a few out there
