Default Pornography!

Now I have your attention;

Introducing BLAIR '07'. Eveything is done except Rego, which I will do in the next month (not much point registering it now, it's raining so much at home I'll need a boat to get her home). Most things came together pretty well. Very happy with the colour! Very happy with the sound! Goes a bit harder in NA form then I thought it would! Hard top will be off more often then on! The static cling rondells look fantastic. Its been a long time coming but driving this thing around my 'no longer quiet' block is brilliant.

But I do have a question:

How do I register my Cobra? I think it goes like this, please tell me if I am wrong!

1st) Engineering certificate (this will only last one month, so within 28 days I must have the cobra registered or I have to get a new engineering certificate)
2nd) Get a VIN number for my engine from the police.
3rd) Get CTP insurance
4th) Go to a DMR station with all the above (including proof of engine purchase / receipts). Watch them scrutinise my Cobra. Pay registration fees

Thanks for yout time, more pictures in the gallery if you want to look!

That looks fantastic Blair!
It must be very satisfying after a long road to get there.

The second pic is a fantastic shot. The car is really a 10 plus including the top. What manufacturer is the top, and what makes does it fit?

Car looks fantastic Blair.

I think your engineer will apply for a Vin number. Can take a little while.
