Hi trenty,

Hi Spyro just wondering if J Barrett raced fc because if you have a look at david larkins post on early holden racing there is a fc there with J Barrett racing and i have most if the panels for that car

                                    Cheers Damo58

does fully rta approved in sa mean you have engineer certificates for engine, transmission, front end modifications. would be tansferring rego to nsw and these are required. ???
cheers neil.
 

Hi there,
Well what it has  is a new compliance plate on the door pillar that was put there by the RTA in Adelaide when it passed "over the pits" as we would say here.
Not sure what that would mean for NSW but you can ask your RTA.

The label does say it complies with the S.A Vehicle modifications laws and it also has a new VIN Identification number which was read off the RB30 motor.
FYI the plate was placed on 4/3/96
I can send you a picture of the plate if requested.

Hi,
   can you send me some photo's and price range to jennyandron2@bigpond,com,

                                             Regards,
                                                         Ron

i think you will find it will need a NSW engineers certificate for NSW rego usually if legal in another state it's not transferable (which is quite stupid as pretty much the same mods are required)

In Victoria you just use the engineers cert and they just do it without looking at the cars mechanicals, except to make sure the numbers match.

thanks spybo
still interested in seeing some pictures inside and out and a price would help to see if im in the ballpark for a purchase
send to kor61218@bigpond.net.au
