TwoHeadsTas Posted 25October, 2019 Report Share Posted 25October, 2019 FYI I have heard that there will be 2 x local (Northern Tasmanian) 930s going to auction at Tullochs Auctions in the next few weeks. Sorry, don't know any specific details other than they are owned by the same person, in which case I think I know who the owner is, but have never seen the cars, although I do personally know the person who has serviced them for a number of years. Apparently also a 328 Fezza as well. I'll keep my ear to the ground for any further details.. This crowd sold a DeLorean last year for a crazy price, and they got an absolutely crazy price on an unrestored Targa Sporto, so they seem to have the knack of getting a good price for the vendor, as well as making a whack on commissions and buyers fees.

The 930s from memory are a white with black interior 78 or 79, and a 89 black with red interior cab. FAP911 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue_ixxi Posted 24May, 2021 Report Share Posted 24May, 2021 Ha, found this thread coincidentally. I just put down a deposit on those 2 930s over the weekend. Didn't realise they were up for auction 2 years ago as well. Still trying to find more about the cars. @NBTBRV8 do you know much about them and can you share what you do know?

Yes, pretty much what I expected from my chats with Phil. White needs some body work and a fresh coat, and Black needs a better paint job. White probably also needs a top end rebuild and addressing of other electrical and cosmetic issues. Black seems well sorted mechanically.

blue_ixxi Posted 7June, 2021 Report Share Posted 7June, 2021 Yes, I am proceeding with them! They need some work, but should be a good project. VIC lockdown has thrown a spanner in the works though. Still debating whether to freight them or wait a week or two longer and drive them up with a mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coastr Posted 7June, 2021 Report Share Posted 7June, 2021 Drive!! the white car looks exactly like mine from the side, where you can’t notice the fact I’m missing the wide guards, wheels and turbo badging and turbo in general. Hope You can keep us up to date as you refresh and start using these beauties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue_ixxi Posted 8June, 2021 Report Share Posted 8June, 2021 Booked my flight and ferry tickets last night. The prices are rock bottom and car transport is free on the Spirit, so hoping Covid in Melbs stays under control next 2 weeks. Yeah, hoping they are easy on time and wallet to refresh.

blue_ixxi Posted 9June, 2021 Report Share Posted 9June, 2021 Question on driving up the cars from Tassie to Sydney. I believe the sellers will return the number plates to Services Tasmania, and I will need to get a 28 day temporary registration that allows me to drive them interstate. Does anyone know if the cars will have any number plates at all? I find it a bit difficult to imagine I would be driving TAS - NSW distance without a number plate. Won't the cops pull me over?

Check if they are registered first. if they are the seller can go to Service Tas and pay a $30 fee and swap over to standard plates and still keep the cars registered. When you do the receipt state the date and time ownership/liability takes over. If they aren't registered It gets a bit harder and I am not sure what the deal is with temporary permits, check out the TAS Govt website.

P-Kay Posted 9June, 2021 Report Share Posted 9June, 2021 I suspect each state/territory has their own permit scheme. I know for Vic you purchase an unregistered vehicle permit and based on the duration needed will dictate the cost. Limited use of course. I would suggest spending some time on the NSW registration government website. Sorry, I only know vicroads.vic.gov.au Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NSW says they recognise UVP given by other states, but also say you can get UVP in NSW for journeys starting in other states. I guess it will be easy to call and clarify with Service NSW. Services TAS doesn't have any mention of permit stickers, and they are also willing to issue a permit over email, so was wondering if & how they would issue permit stickers.

JLD Posted 9June, 2021 Report Share Posted 9June, 2021 You can only use an unregistered vehicle permit in the state it’s issued. Ask the seller to keep them registered until you get home, saves trucking costs P-Kay 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask the seller to keep them registered until you get home, saves trucking costs There is an element of trust in this, the seller is buying you as much as you are buying the seller. When I got my GT3 the seller left the plates on to allow me to have a drive around Melb for a couple of days before going back to Tassie, I sent them back when I got home so he could get the refund on remaining rego Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamr Posted 10June, 2021 Report Share Posted 10June, 2021 Easy peasy ... and yes, I’m speaking from experience. Go to Service NSW and get 2 x UVP’s. You self declare they are roadworthy on the form. They are recognised and allow you to drive anywhere in Aus TO NSW. Sightseeing not included. They will only give you them for a limited time frame .. for the time you think it will take to drive from point A to point B .. you can add a couple of days for stopovers but you can’t just apply for 28 days as they know it won’t take that long. No, you won’t have any number plates and it’s still legal. If you get pulled over, you have paperwork and a temporary rego sticker. I drove a truck from Adelaide to Sydney on a UVP and had no issues at all .. 😀 Once you get home, you can still drive it to repairers etc. while unregistered. Just have a booking for work to be done to avoid any issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to clarify .. if the UVP is issued in NSW, you can start anywhere but must be returning to NSW. You can’t get one in NSW and drive from Melbourne to Adelaide.
