RHD to LHD
So my project sits in the corner of my garage with blown apex seal and Its time for new everything top to bottom. Engine, paint, maybe swap to LHD.. Anything can be done with time and money, I'm just wondering if anyone has done this and could tell me if its worth the hassel of doing.

He's in Canada. Up here RHD FD's are a dime a dozen and you can't seem to give them away.
All in all, not to hard. You will need a LHD firewall, steering rack, dash, interior etc. Hope you're good at wiring ...

I would say it's rather expensive way to go. Few needed things to mention:
LHD front wiring loom,
LHD dash with wiring loom,
LHD steering rack,
LHD pedals,
LHD firewall,
LHD Heater, AC, all piping.
LHD instrument cluster - front panel,
LHD center bellhouse surround panel,
LHD door trims, wiring, mechanisms.
If you want to do it, my 0.02C is get another salvaged or damaged shell for parts source.

I never understood why guys wanted to go from LHD to RHD, but atleast you're trying to go the other way. I've seen it done on other cars and other than gathering up the right parts. There's wiring that needs to be extended and obviously drilling new holes into your firewall.
