Correct me if I am wrong :shock:

1-There were NO LRH P-35W ever made...
2-They (RHD) were all locally converted to LHD (in South America, Phillipines, etc.).

So the question would be: does these "Home Made" conversion be "Canada approved" upon registering these over here as a thrue LHD ???? :?

I don't think I've ever seen a P35W in LHD before, but who knows: all the European market L300s were LHD. Though there's something screwy going on with that one, it has a Chamonix badge on the back but it doesn't have the upholstery.

Good point- there's at least one shot in there showing the passenger (right side) seat grab handle, which suggests this was built LHD and 4WD. I wonder which market had LHD P35Ws?

But Hey! Isn't driving on the wr... I mean right side of the car the BEST! I find it funny because my co-pilot always gets mixed up and heads for the driver's seat forgetting she doesn't like driving, but I've got pretty used to hopping in right off the sidewalk :p

Just put the sliding door on the right side of the van and we're golden!
