The right hand drive conversion would have been very hard to steer but will be easy to change back to left hand and probably would be legal, as the universals are similar to those fitted to a lot of modern vehicles these days.
The oil filled, chain drive, left to right conversion on a couple of 972 Diamond T wrecks I have would have been a lot smoother. Ken

The old deuces are quite common around here, and most parts are fairly plentiful. But as you mentioned, there are very few options for cheap shipping to Australia.
I have heard of sea containers being filled with farm implements the next province over to go down under. You would pretty much have to hitch a ride that way to make it at all economical. As it stands, you would pay many multiple times in shipping what the parts would cost. I have a complete truck out back for spares that has everything you need. And the original non-directional tires are available brand new on ebay for $125 USD these days. |
