66gt Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 Hi all I have a Mk 1 GT Cortina I bought years ago and the rego was dead then. I still have the ownership papers and the body tags but no number plates. The ownership papers are not in my name as I bought it for parts with no intention of getting it on the road again. Will I be able to reregister it with a new VIN number and new plates or is it a dead duck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yetchh Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 If its been registered in nz before then probably, you might need a declaration from the police saying they have no interest on the car. I can't see why you wouldn't be able to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
datlow Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 yeah man, id recommend going to the place you intend to rereg it at and ask them (as they will give you what paperwork they want/need ie a form to be filled by police etc) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CUL8R Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 I bought my Gloria sort've similar. No plates, however the car was previously registered in NZ. The old plate was etched into the glass or I had a old rego tag (or both I cant remember now) anyway, you need to go to either Police, or the Justice of the peace - basically someone with high enough respectable standing stating you haven't stolen it and believe you're trustworthy. Mine had to sight the car - and noted down the chassis or vin number? From there it was a very simple Recompliance (read, fancy wof) - Total cost approx $560 from memory? It sounds alot more daunting than it actually is. Provided the car is up to wof standard thats the hardest part.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
