Converting the vette

<< < (5/12) > >>

Mattrix:
so, I'm signing papers now and am still planned to go over there in a few weeks time to get it. At this stage if i want to drive it there, which i totally do, i have to pay californian sales tax. then when i bring it back i gotta pay more tax and duty. I have an interesting way to keep my costs down, pm or email me if you want more info. Im keen to get lots done to it over there, I would like some suggestions on what I should do to the car, I want to tidy the engine right up for starters... any ideas what I should DEFINITELY do and other things that would just be *nice*?

VET-005:
Its actually 12 months you have to have owned and used the car over in the states. If you have any relo's in south oz or perth you can always rego it over there. there limit is 15 years or older but i hear thats going to change in the not to distant future also.

Mattrix:
south oz where? nah don't know anyone.. though it is tempting to take it to perth to register and then bring it back here until 2008 :) very very tempting...
how is it going to change? what's happening? i only knew there were changes to the 15 year rule for imports, it's going to get progressively longer and longer, however nothing has been written down yet so nothing is concrete. hopefully by the time it affects me it won't affect me anymore... if that makes sense :)

i think u can regester them in N.T as well

Mattrix:
really? i got a mate who has spent a lot of time in NT, I'll have to ask him...i wonder if that's true... i spose that's closer than perth, i guess i just have to pick the closest place that will do it for me and head there :)
