Whats with the DUMB question? Wouldnt you check with the relivent state registration body or are you trying to rebody stolen cars? Sounds like the later to me.

It is a bit different to a pre 1970 Monaro, as on the HZ the identity of the car as far as the Police and registry are concerned is on the chassis. With the HK and pre 1970 HT the sole identity of the car lies with the actual body shell not the rails. So |

You will find there is quite a good reason for the law. It is very easy, you cannot remove a compliance plate (the one with the adrs and chassis number on it, not the other tags) from a vahicle.
Now we all know that for some models it is quite "normal"

Warren, read again what I suggested. There are no laws broken.

i dont see any problem.
its not the same argument as HKTG for this reason.

Adam, I agree but we must remember that removing an ADR tag is the problem, ie not exactly legal.

i asked a real policeman who deal with rebirths etc, and i was told the only way this was legal was if the donor shell was in fact a "spare part" and did not already have an adr tag attached.
How many of these "spare parts" have you seen on Egay?

To vintageholden, you said you wanted to swap bodies NOT paint under the rivets. Get it right. And as for the laws they are there for a reason, to try and keep people honest. Like I said, you choose which catergory you fall into. And as for the negative t
