As the topic suggests, i need a mechanic. I just bought a 180b with no rego. It's in good nick and everything i just need a roadworthy cert. Is anyone or does anyone know a reasonable mechanic in the hobart area that would good to see about a roady? also, how does service tas work with rego'ing old cars? im from vic and studying down here so unsure. Thanks in advance  |

Is this the orange sss? If so I know the car. If it is all roadworthy any where EXCEPT the RACT! would be OK. they would fail a brand new car the pricks! I do them at my work, but they charge much more than other places. As for Service TAS. As long as it passes the inspection and you can prove you own the car it is as easy as paying your rego plus a bit extra for the new plates. If older than 30 years as this car is and you don't want to drive more than 52 days in the year you can opt for SI rego I just put my 1600 on SI and it is around $250 for the year.
Cheers, Clyde.

thanks clyde. yes it is the orange sss. nice car, yeah?
i'll be picking it up at the end of the month when i return to tas and will want the rego pretty quick. the SI rego sounds good but i'm planning on using the sss as a daily so wouldnt work for me. thanks for the heads up anyway.

pretty sure truck biz arent doing them anymore.. i've seen the 180b too, been sitting there for awhile! good to see someone is getting it back on the road. Recommed trying for a r/w at the nearest place to where the car is at, they are pretty good. |
