First of all, I dont have a mother-in-law. Used to, but she is long gone. Lovely lady. Loved my Packard Twelve. But she never learned to drive ! She was a genteel old southern lady who "knew" that "nice girls dont drive, smoke, or chew tobacco". Fortunately, her daughter, when I married her, while PRETENDING to be a nice girl when she was in hearing range of her parents...well.....but that's another story. Point is, we needed the room of the back seat of the Twelve for...so I dont want the steering wheel moved back there because...oh...forget it...this is getting a bit too kinky and off the subject for a technical chat.......!

Secondly, if you can figure out a way to get more power into my Lake amphib, I will kiss you on both cheeks, even tho " I am not normally "that kind" of guy"....!

Anyway, why in hell would I want RHD in my Packard Twelve? I live in the NORTHERN hemisphere. Not like those crazy Aussies, who live way down there...upside down. Can you imagine how that must hurt after a few years..I mean..walking around upside down...damn..think of the headaches they must get....
