No Heath, their stuff is mostly dereged, as that one was. Pity, that's how they sell the damaged ones.

True I don't have the experience to do a full restoration I would prefer as I get started with this to have a working car and make it better =)

oh... i thought that one was still registered as i don't think it was a damaged car auction.

its still worth checking out the damaged auctions as you can get a car with very very minor damage due to the age (think dents) for next to nothing.

How much is it to re-reg a car? espically if you factor in a manual conversion into the mix.

There are 3 E30 320s for sale at Turners Damaged Auction this Thursday in Auckland. One has been hit in the back but the other 2 look damage free, but all are sold dereged.

Not sure, but I think the cost's about 400 to revin if it has been reged in NZ before, and is up to scratch, sure someone will correct me if wrong.

Manual conversions start around 7 to 800 on the cheap, and around 1000 to 1200 with some new bits, like cylinders and clutch plate.

So if you can find a manual thats dereg'd with very minor damage it might be a better buy than an auto at 400 or 600 that you then need to do a conversion on... Thats more the point i was getting at...
