Dig out the bit you are jumping over so it looks higher -
Fuel stabiliser saves fresh gas it doesn't bring back old gas. But yes if you have some Jerry cans the gas will last a couple years if you add it

Probably full of shit. Run a tap down them. Check bolt threads too

lots of interesting things going on here stationary engine turbo fuel injection car with just the engine does 100

I gotta see numbers on a bit of paper tho. Cos they used to bolt a bit of metal inside the chamber of flathead to increase performance and I'm entirely sure all it did was increase preignition lol Pretty sure that one comes from the same guy who makes rings on the back of valves

Also saw that being done to the high performance ecotec 3.8 moo edition. But just to the plenum and not the runners. To trick the plenum into thinking its bigger than it is as above Of course no data to back it up, but looks cool

ALT documents form, to be used when no proof of previous NZ rego available https://vehicleinspection.nzta.govt.nz/__data/assets/pdf_file/0008/32876/Alternative-documents-form.pdf From motorcycles being rereg with zero paperwork and no plates

probably comes up under fiat 'van' or LLOO, the data entry is pretty garbage

you will need the sellers name and address for the stat declaration, i just went to the local vtnz and got them to print me one of theirs out (on their dime) Take lots of photos of the rusty screws holding the numberplates on, old dealer stickers etc you at least have the old plates still attached and probably a chassis number which is great, for further 'proof' you could try for example the local fiat barry club and get a letterhead from them stating what range of chassis numbers were imported as Ky said in the other thread, there is actually a backroom of data not avail

here is the information @azzurrothat is useful to you, i went through all the available info looking at a different vehicle earlier this year as well https://vehicleinspection.nzta.govt.nz/virms/entry-certification/i-and-c/required-documentation-and-registration/re-registering-a-vehicle you may get sent to the assessments team if they think its sus. so this is actually a time where having more is better.
