thats exactly right. you will find that in NSW the engineering and RTA will be fine seeing that he has a certification for NSW roads for the car. i saw the car in the trading post and rang him and asked about all the details and got him to send me photos and specs. i wanted to help the guy out. top bloke to talk to and full of knoweledge!!

I must confess that I'm mildly interested...But I'd need to get an idea of what extra costs may be involved...oh, and I'd probably need to get a divorce 1st (Because I'd almost certainly get one later!!! )
Still, very nice idea!

yer i talked to him too and found him to be a great guy
also knew his car very well
and really loves it
everything is done to an amazing standard and your looking a few weeks work and less then 2 k and it will be on the road engineered and amazing
if this car came up in a years time i would be having it shipped to newcastle but its just not the right time for me
great car
great guy
hope it goes to a good home
