Eastern, Pasco. 34k original miles, but fabric on couch and dinette a little rough. Has generator. Pretty cool little retro-mobile.

Hi guys,
not sure what year range determines 'Vintage' however here's our 1988 Monaco Crown Royale I imported into Australia last year. Now converted to Right hand drive, engineered, registered and cruising the roads Down-Under.

This is certainly a unique vehicle in our part of the world.

Converted to right hand drive? That had to be one heck of a project. Was it required by law?

Hi Jay,
yes, normally left hand drive vehicles 25 years old or older, don't need to be converted to RHD but any vehicles over 4.5 Metric Tonne are required by law to be Right Hand Drive.

Also had to convert electrics as we operate on 240V and gas lines to appliances had to be re-run as our law requires Copper Gas Lines.

So a fair amount of work required to comply these things in Australia, not to mention Tail Lights, Head Lights, Clearance Lights, Seatbelts........

Regards
Rod
