Factory left hand drive or conversion?
In other words, did the factory make a LHD in 1933? PJ

I don't recall ever running across anything that noted any LHD as built cars until the 1950s. I may very well be wrong, but I'd say conversion. Would love to see under the l/h hood at the setup, that would tell I expect.
 
Mike, doesn't Germany drive on the left as we do? Could be wrong though. No info on this car at the time. I just noticed what appears to be duel exhaust's.
 
Best I can say is that the stuff I've gathered over the years doesn't come directly out and say no LHD, but it is implied that the production line at least didn't build like that. Now maybe some "factory" conversions after completion?? But all I've ever seen are references to RHD build numbers. And as for Germany, remember that after WW2 the TC sent to North America were all RHD with no LHD option and we're a LHD road setup.
