Aussie 73 Hornet.

Looking good

Did you get a front photo too? Looks like a good variety of cars at the show 

I love how that engine bay looks. You have your steering on the same side as all the primary electrical connections, and then air/fuel+exhaust on the other side. It's as if it was purposely meant to be like this and I can't unsee it. Our LHD American cars here in the states are weird.

Looking at the picture of the bottom of your car it appears that your engine is also offset to the right, without regard to extra room for steering components. Without exhaust and steering on the same side, perhaps it does not matter. I always wondered if your engines were offset to the left as ours are offset to the right. Is it offset to the right or is the picture fooling my eyes?

I did not know the answer so went over to the shed and measured.
Interesting, The engine is offset to the right whichever way I measure it.
By about 1.5"
17.5 " from Exhaust,Intake Manifold gasket line to Shock absorber nut at top of tower.
16" From other side of head to corresponding nut.
Underneath. 6" from edge of box section to engine mount stud on left side.
4.5" from edge of box section to engine mount stud on right side.
Same difference using the straight sump sides for a reference.

If I was assembling a USA built car in Australia today I would do it the easiest practical way that works. Changing as little as possible getting it to a useable RHD while spending as little as possible to get it past whatever ridiculous hurdles some goverment fella in an office dreamed up to stop me.
Thats just how Australia is.

Thanks Jason,
             I'm only a newborn on here compared to you and I worked out I must not say that word.
Saw pics of your car, black and chrome always looks great.
