Hello and welcome!
Mk3s were exported to the USA but I don't think many were sold there.

Hello, All.
I have been in Canada for 44 years and never seen or heard of one on this side of the pond anywhere. Would it be feasible to convert one to left hand drive I wonder.
Congratulations on your good fortune,
Bernie.

Congratulations on your good fortune, Bernie. It would be extremely difficult to convert to LHD as the bulkhead (firewall) is completely different. However I do know of one in the UK that is apparently being professionally converted from LHD to RHD, which seems ridiculous to me as it would be so much cheaper and easier to buy a good RHD one. |

Firstly, welcome to the forum! I agree totally with Eddie's comment on the LHD to RHD conversion. I cannot believe it has or is being attempted! So many parts are LHD or RHD specific and sourcing all the good RHD stuff (dashtop etc) will be difficult to say the least. |

Apparently having an MK3 Zodiac is a bit abnormal here in the States. I picked up a 1964 Zodiac in Arizona that originally was in Melbourne AUS, shipped to British Columbia then down to Arizona USA. I bought it was a 302 and 4 speed toploader, since installed a 331 stroker and slowly upgrading the thing to be a solid daily driver. Tracking down parts in this side of the world has definitely been a task, but not entirely impossible with how connected we are via the internet.
