does it have an original number plate number or a vin or chassis number which would be required to vin/reregister it? maxedout1 (247) • 9:06 am, Tue, 5 May

No it's de registered. It will be registered and certified as a scratch built vehicle similar to if you built a new kit car. mrd8 (135) • Tuesday, 5 May 2026

if its de reg then it will have original chassis number to find vehicle history and to enable re reg, but a scratch build, that's another story, so if de reg what was the previous reg or chassis number? maxedout1 (247) • 11:24 am, Tue, 5 May

I don't know much about the car as I'm selling on behalf of someone who passed away. I know it was bought as a de registered rusty wreck with no history over 15 years ago. The firewall has Style 9m-74. Body no. Fee 9 6019 Seat tag 4542 8mb 7364 700 stamped into it. According to to original trademe ad it's one of a few RHD 's built for the Asian market and then imported here. A mystery for the next owner to solve. mrd8 (135) • Tuesday, 5 May 2026
