They can come for you too, same with electrical work WorkSafe NZ complaint leads to prosecution of Nelson man (boinz.org.nz)

Cos rules?

Gasfitter came to check our hob, ended up having to replace regulator and relocate the gas bottle as existing install was illegal. Still waiting for the account for that one.

Gonna be up for an electrician fee though probably

This one came north on a yransporter, wasn't much fun reversing it down the ramp in the rain. I took a couple of pics for 'Drive Your Woodie Day' and got one published in the Woodie Times (club magazine for the US-based National Woodie Club)

Any progress @Goat?

One too many potholes for the FIET?

It's a long thread, but there is some good stuff in there

Oh boy, you have summoned the speeno rust demon Phosphoric acid does act on the rust chemically. I've let it dry plenty of times, it can be cleaned up by wetting with more/sanding. The main thing is that if you want a long-lasting job all the rust etc must be gone (clean white metal) before the epoxy primer.

Might have an ignition computer module?

Yeah, they do look good in your pix

You can get radiators recored but every time I show up at a radiator shop the old boy whistles through his teeth and says it's gonna be expensive, and what do you know, it is!

One-may Mitsubishis only?

Not going to make it, too much else going on / not enough leave in the bank. Don't need a refund. Have a good time folks.

Looks like a good score! Mokes ruled back in the 80s even when I last attended a proper grasskhana

Have a careful read here, particularly the border inspection and entry certification parts. Vehicle Inspection Portal (nzta.govt.nz)

My understanding, having bought a car like that (then sold it after a little rust repair and getting a vin assigned) 1. Flagged for rust usually isn't a compliance inspection, just a basic border check. You will need to get the rust repaired / signed off by repair certifier. Make sure you get one sorted out before starting any repairs. 2. I got a vin issued on mine, I guess it proves the title/paperwork is in order for getting it on the road in NZ 3. Repair certifier first then entry certification (compliance check). Unlikely it needs to go back to the same place, even if it actually has been checked previously. 4. Probably needs to be a runner/driver for the entry certification check. Unlikely that a different engine number would be an issue. One of the headaches is that you need to go through a lot of work before getting to that stage, make sure you have your ducks lined up before spending too much moneys.

Get a proper automotive one, they are more likely to work in a car environment. I tried a 12v timer board from AliX, it was fine running on the car when the engine wasn't running, but didn't work right with the engine running, too much electrical noise from the ignition probably.

Looking good. They do expect you to send back the old white plates when you get the new black ones.

I think that's the case with DIY, maybe not so much for pieces bought from a supplier?

Custom A-arms can be OK LVVTA_Info_01-2012_Custom_Suspension_Arm_Inspection_Approval.pdf

Resene will take their own brand household stuff. I even got them to take some RALI car paint. Non-resene is $5 a tin I think, they have to be able to open the tin so check that first.

Is your commodore that old now?

I've left town now.

Just been back and re-read the project thread from the start, it's been a journey! It will be good to see you getting it out and racing again.
