Right Hand Drive '67 Parisienne Convertible and R.H.D. '66 Impala
Permalink  

I am in Trinidad right now which is in the Caribbean and I went to a car show, here are some of the cars that attended. The Parisienne is supposedly 1 of 3 ever produced and it came with a 283 and factory power windows which were both unheard of back then, (V8s were pretty much not allowed to be imported). These cars are factory R.H.D. and were not converted using chains or gear wheels like a lot of the other imported cars which make them very unique.
There were also '64-'69 four door Chevelles, '66 & '67Ford Galaxy 500 four door, two door and convertibles, '67 Plymouth Cudas and '67 & '68 Mercury Cougars all with factory, not converted R.H.D.
I will post some more later.

So it looks like a few of the cars that were shipped from GM Canada survived the boat ride and the passage of time. I love seeing that sort of thing.

The RHD Chevy & Pontiac from 1965 through at least 1968 used a 1965 Chevy dash. On the previous generation it was different, both the Chevy & Pontiac 1961-1964 used a RHD Pontiac dash. When I was in Bali, Indonesia many years ago I saw a 1962 Impala Sport Sedan with a RHD Pontiac dash. It was a 283 Powerglide car and looked huge relative to the other vehicle on the road. In Bali even the typical delivery truck is much smaller than my Passat.
