While the United States collective boo-hoos over the 25-year law (for our non-domestic readers, foreign vehicles may be imported only after 25 years have passed from its model year), it’s another story in Australia.
See, anything is legal, as long as you have the means. That includes the Chevrolet Corvette, which has never been sold Down Unda’. However, one man took it upon himself to bring one into Australia for the purpose of roasting tires and taking names.
After a $50,000 reconstruction, which moved the driver controls to the right-hand side of the vehicle per Aussie law, the C6 Corvette Z06 was plated and made road legal. Surely, it’s a sight to see in Australia.
1320video made a pitstop to drive the rare RHD Corvette in all its glory, and it’s a strange sight to see the thoroughbred American sports car with the steering wheel on the opposite side.
Have a look at the video right up above.
