apparently if it first was registered in NZ before 1991 it would be cheaper than if it was after.

And after first of Jan it will qualify for classic vehicle licencing - around a hundy for 12 months, and won't need continuous licencing - What you refer to as rego.

right now it will cost about 700 purely for the paperwork.Then theres the repair work required to get it on the road. If you are light on funds id be tempted to suggest getting a 140$ `prepurchase` inspection done by the vtnz compliance/wof station near you. my reasoning being that its a LOT cheaper than a real compliance and if you ask them nicely they will do a full compliance inspection -kinda a claytons compliance. This means if theres a LOT of work to do to pass complianceA) you arent tied into having it fixed in 28 days or you loose your money B) because its officially not a compliance inspection the inspection doesnt get into the ltsa site. heck if it looks fine why not ask em to make the PP a compliance--kinda win/win

Nope it needs revinned, rego has lapsed. Hmmm $700 doesn't sound to great, but it's going to be a project for the Mr so hmmmm.
Will pass on the info about the inspection, thanks Kaz

Sounds pretty steep to me. Given it's pre-'91 it only gets checked to WoF standard. Nothing invasive.
So just need (preferably) proof of ownership back to last registered owner, but at very least something showing you own it, plus note from police saying they have no interest in it (they have a form they fill in ). Then pay for VIN'ing, certification and at least 6 months licence when registering. It is a couple/few hundy, but wouldn't think 7!

Circumnavigate the endless line of hands out that makes up the LVV gravy train by taking your time and looking for a suitable donor parts car that is still live in the system. Either swap your good stuff over onto it and go and get a WOF or, swap all of its good stuff onto your one including its tags and go and get a WOF.

which is 28 days Smac Im seriously happy to be proven wrong but my understanding of a rereg was it was treated as a fresh in the country import --inspection wise. Again moren happy to be proven wrong -my breakdown is $4oo ish for compliance and 300 ish for plates n *papers*

Can't PROVE you wrong sorry, as I don't have a copy of the bulletin that went to the TSDA's, however I know from personal experience that a rereg of a car that was registered in NZ previously prior to '91 (or 90.I forget) is inspected to WoF stadard for compliance, not the full schamalie a fresh import gets.
From memory mine cost about $700 all up, but that included $400 for LVV. However I paid a little less (licence) as over 40 years.

You need to read not type I posted the costs ealier done in early July for a car pre 1990 previously registered in NZ. There is NO Police interest form you must do a Statutory declaration reguardinhg ownership in front of a JP. A structural certificate is $236 if the car has any non factory welding under it.
