Yeah that's the other one I was talking about. It belongs to Chris, and that's my 57 parked next to his. Both RHD's came over from Australia together.
The other RHD I was talking about might be unveiled at the Classic

I think you missed the RHD part. The original poster was refering to right hand drive cars not LHD

| not sure if there is a thread already but would like one started of original factory markings on pans or parts on cars that have not been painted over ect. i have seen early cars that looked liked my five year old got hold of the chalk. i find expection marks add to the coolness factor that should be kept or documented. |

Lots if you go to the UK...
Would be interested to know how many OG RHD Oval's stateside originally originated in the UK.
BTW why do you guys like RHD so much? |
