the other half wants a rhd tristar,anybody got one for sale,sorry no lhd must be rhd and yes i know theres not many about especially as we sent one to new zealand last year,if you have one for sale please send me a PM cheers cj.

That'll learn you for shipping nice, very rare buses out of the country.

You might look at the Tristar on ebay.de, check out this weeks post.

Its very dented etc but if you want RHD, it would be a good project bus inc converting to RHD.

There is a lot more to converting a van from LHD to RHD or other way round than meets the eye.Quite frankly isnt worth the hasle.

Russel,
Just how many Tristar Syncro RHD's were made?

MG

ONLY RHD please.

ONLY RHD please.

Oooh look, a post for the hard of thinking.

"a post for the hard thinking"

NOT you then!

MG

spoil sport

hehhehehheheh

As far as i am aware there were 24 in the UK i am not shure if they were available in other RHD counterys.I know they werent available in SA then again neither were syncro panel vans or syncro single and crewis.

So they're fairly rare then.

I'd not look at a RHD conversion as too much work on such a rare van. Converting from 2WD Syncro isn't a major deal. I suprised by how little work was needed rather than the opposite.

Well converting a LHD syncro Tristar to RHD is spoiling it.It will devalue it as well.Not to mention insurance.LHD syncro Tri's arent very common either(but more common than RHD).LHD 2WD Tri's are the most common.

The whole bulkhead is different not to mention wipers,hand brake,wireing,dash board,steering rack,accelirator and cable,head lights,mirrors,heater controle cables,gear stick,etc.
It is easiest cutting and welding a RHD front end on.(floor to posts)
But hey if u feel the need,personaly there is nothing wrong with sitting
on the other side But some people just dont want to.

Probably LHD but close.

Mick, I think that's Mudlark's, so RHD, identical and thoroughly owned.
