Great suggestion from Rob. You will get good advice from the Vic. Cobra Club...but if you're buying a (new) turnkey car or a roller and then fitting an engine of choice, you'll absolutely need the services of a signatory (compliance) engineer.

If you buy a car that has compliance for registration (ie is already registered), check that it hasn't then been further modified as you could then run into legal problems with non-compliance.

As Modena stated previously, "VicRoads moved the goal posts recently", so advice from a signatory engineer is absolutely necessary to ensure that you don't waste a lot of money.

Enjoy the ride!
Cheers,
Glen
