Really!!!! sub standard repair.

bloody hell thats a lot of work

i know you have a plan but there are other options as well....

Elko/ dodge city conversions in Oz can do you a /6 or 318 or indeed hemi 6 K-frame ready modified to take either a power or manual variable rate RHD rack from the holden/monaro/ vauxhall/ or for LHD a RWD Aussie Built pontiac Chevy police car (2door 4door) pre converted. i.e you get a kit, coupleing to column etc

if you wanted RHD wih a steering box an aussie RH chassis rail repair sleeve and a rectangular section welded on to the bottom of it, covers you for the mount
you need to split open the bottom of the rail add in a zig zag of metal partitions (with drian holes) and 2 pices of pipe for top 2 bolts the box section you weld under does the bottom bolt
given what you have done already it would not be that hard

depends how far you wanna go

as with all RHD mopars one stiff chassis rail and one bendy one leads to the stiff one cracking after 30 years :)

for this you'd need aussie lower balljoints
aussie idler and pitman
aussie RHD stering box minimum of the case, you need the RHD case (you can put LHD guts in it no problem, pictures on the MMA site )
and a c bracket on the oposite rail for the idler
remeber RHD has the pitman arm facing the oposite way (in built bump steer) and the ballnut in the steering box is upside down. its Australian innit :)

if you want a look at RHD set up i'll be at the Mopar nats happy to jack it up

if you wanted manual trans an aussie 318 bellhousing can be bolted to an a833 with an adapter. use a dakota roller spigot and the clutch set up is the same, you just put a strengthening plate on the chassis for the outer ballstud end of the clutch z bar if you car never had one...


all the RHD stuff is based on the Aussie and SA set up replciated by hamtramck for the run of 68 and 69 Barracudas sent to UK and Oz Jamaica etc so chrysler did successful RHD builds of barracuda

If you wanted a heater, one from a R- VE valiant (62-68) has a transverse motor. no hole in firewall a later one has the logitundinal motor and you need a hole in the firewall
and if you want crotch cooling/ bee up the right leg of your shorts,standard style vents they are of course mirror image of the US ones, the heater / vent sits on the left and an independent vent for the right with the pulls in the right place
i think the early cars had them..... i might be wrong

the odd bit of trim etc the aussie AP5 and AP6 valiant would be a place to start

wiper motor you might have fun with..... not sure if they are handed

but the rest of the car all just goes in the same place...
