When is a 28 Chev a 27 Chev

Found this one advertised on Ebay, from Qld.

Nice looking Chev, advertised as a 28, but its....

- A 27 with a 28 engine
- No front brakes
- 27 instruments
- 27 Radiator surround.

It has the USA left hand drive exhaust manifold, which as you can see from the engine bay picture the steering column is virtually touching the exhaust. First time I have ever seen this setup. Very dangerous.

This was the reason right hand drive 28's have a unique manifold, to clear the steering column.

Would make me ask the question, "Has it been for a long drive"
