Didn't have the cash at the time and went back when I did, but couldn't source the parts anymore. Then I lost my Workshop, so I gave up.
From What I gathered was that its not too hard a conversion, but very time consuming, You've basically got to strip the dash to get the pedal box in, plus the radiator or transmission cooler.
In the end I would of given it a go, but not an option now. Ritters wanted about $8000 drive in drive out.
