Damn.. that would be an awesome offer, but I will be able to get one here for $25k with the RHD already done, butbelieve me it will be in quite terrible condition, thats the equavilent of something you guys would pay about $6k for.

Yours at $25k would be $30k AUD shipping is $3.1k Compliance is $5k RHD conversion is $15k.. hehe $53k is WELL outside my little budget :( Believe me, if I had more money I would most definatly be sourcing something from the states. :) as It is ill be looking at getting any year as long as its not an 84, and it will be Auto, since manuals are nearly impossible to get here.. Lucky though the V8 is basically the Aussie culture, so engines/parts are cheap as chips, a 350/350hp Crate motor goes for about $1500 of your USD new,butI want an L98.. a manual conversion will be a must.. Dont suppose you can point me in the direction to get info on this swap?

Because of RHD conversions, there is no such thing as an "original" c4 in this country :P

Hehe well it is a Nice place to live, I think you would be very happy with the "who gives a Sh1t" aussie way of living :)
And you could always bring your vette or a couple over and Make so much you could retire;)plus any money you bring over gets increased thanks to the exchange rate. Or just bring it over for a little bit and upgrade it while your here, Our chev and V8 parts are so cheap we usesmall block 350's for door stops and paper weights. [8D]A brand new LS1 engine is about $2500 USD.. (shall I set the dinner table for you?)
