Re: DRB #42

Looking really good Colin. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Pretty quick build time as well.

Is it registered yet? Looks like you are getting some driving enjoyment out of it.

Any chance of getting a photo of under the rear clip?

Re: DRB #42

Must feel good to have it reg'd.

That's one very, very tidy engine bay. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Smart move going for the half roll cage option as well.

It's going to take a very long time to wipe that smile off your face. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Can't wait to see the finished interior.

Re: DRB #42

Colin,
How tough was the registration process? Here in QLD it is a total pain in the butt. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img] But fortunatly P.R. has it sorted. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Re: DRB #42

Here in Whatcom County Washington, I believe it is possibly the easiest in the country. All I had to do was produce proof of purchase for all major components and discuss the location for the VIN tag (for which they allowed me to define the number and provide tags themselves). Total time 20 minutes. Then off to pay user tax and get plates. Slam dunk.
