You are required by law to convert the car over to LHD (as well as other changes like tyres etc) in Australia. This isnt the UK or the USA. We have different laws. If the car is over 30 years old you dont have to convert it. Which leads me to my follow-up question. What are good websites in the USA with old/used cars. Looking at buying a 67~69 fastback. The reason is in the next post.
I have sent a message to a couple of fellow IMBOC member in American Samoa that had (maybe still has) a RHD 2001 Ford Mustang Bullitt for sale. It's the only known one in existence. At one time the car was in Australia and may still be. The car was converted in Australia.
Lots of info on the Bullitt Mustang in this link. IMBOC also has a registry for 67/68 Mustangs. Someone on the site may well be able to help you locate a clean one if thats your choice.
