Wouldnt mind seeing some better pics of it. I wonder if you could get approval as a parts car. I reckon he would have his hand well & truly on it claiming 700hp, it would need a bit more than a big cam & PI manifold.

What a jam to get yourself into, somebody didn't do their homework or thought they could sneak it in. Very costly mistake either way.

Oh it can't be 700hp.  But I'd be happy for someone to prove me wrong with evidence.

If that's 700, I'm 500 haha

How much is that in itself going to hurt his pocket you reckon?

Seems odd to me ... I dont believe you need an ANDRA licence to import a race car. Whose to say it has to be drag raced ?  ...

It will just never get registered.

So why doesn't he just get it out of quarantine and figure out what to do from there ?

Weird.

Nice car though !

Cheers,
Frank.

You would need a licence for a motorsport category relative to what the car is built for.

My brother has his licence... I'll offer him $15k...

umm , so how did it end up in australia ? as you know paperwork must be complete before shipping so obviously he shipped with no dotars approval , and more than likely he shipped in his own container as he imports tools and came unstuck ! norty norty

Maybe he did have DOTARs approval, but just fibbed a bit on the 'lack of modifications' - one would imagine that they don't like that...

Parts car only now, or drag car.

If you remove the mods from a parts/drag car, can you get it registered later if you restore it to stock?

one worded answer = No.   

Legally, you'd have to export it and import again to get import approval to be allowed registration.
