    seatbelt requirements

    in General Car Chat

    Posted

    I had a bech seat in the tray of my 1200 ute when i first got it. it was mounted backwards so people in the tray looked out the back and had their back to yours. I had three lap belts all with proper mounting points. It got WOFs all gud and never hassled by the cops but I had a canopy over the tray. Dunno bout the proper regs but mine was all good

    We had 10 in a suzuki carry van down in chch. Got pulled over cos it was slammedas/could see 10 heads in the back. The cop said it was all good as long as we all had our back to a wall and the driver stayed under 50 kays. :shock:

    he said the reason he pulled us over was to see if we had more than 12(i think) cos then the driver would need a commercial license.

    I couldnt believe it. But cops never know rules properly.

    should be fine...vw beetles have fuel tanks in the front

    they are quite a bit back, so you can get some serious cruch on and still not hit it, got to be better than that american car (forget name) that had it right in the boot, and exploded at the slightest bender

    Discution happens ----->here<-----

    Hey boes, I have been a long time reader of all the projects a goin ons on this site so I figured I would share my project.

    1982 datsun 1200 ute. I bought it off my grandma for a grand and then realised that I had bought the special lightweight rusty model. So a year later and there is no rust and all that is left to do is a bit of body work and then top coat......(pics up later)

    Here is a list of modifacations so far.

    Body: shaved lip around tray and cab, Shaved the handle off the tailgate and adapted a hilux catch system to work, shaved fuel filler flap. Goin to be painted red like that glossy as fuck red but a solid colour none of that mettalic shit.

    Engine: A15 with a cam and a 28/36 downdraught weber, Which is later goin to be twin sidies and even later ahve plans for a dirrrrty carby turbo setup :twisted:

    Interior: Fixed backs, electric windows (I got bored one rainy day, works mint), Black and grey door cards and shit to come.

    I have also custom fitted the front disk setup from an s14 200sx (non turb) with adjustable coilovers to sack her out. and in the back it has a rearranged leaf pack(ghetto stz FTW) and 2 inch block so she tucks haaaard.

    For wheels I have some 14x6.5 chrome cragars that look slightly bogan but I am looking at getting some others that are a secret at te mo and If it goes thru they will look fuckin bangin.

    Sweet that is about as much as words can describe. photos will be up when I can be bothered.

    Chur,

    Dave
