Bearing in mind it is easier to get a CA engineered in a ute.

I estimate my engineering costs to be about $1000

Initial payment of $250.00 for him to take on the job and then $60 per hour. Also things like having to get wheel alignment, weigh bridge, emissions tests, track testing have been factered into this cost.

However have not got the bill yet, so may be more or hopefully less. But when you got a expensive car that you want to register. It is about your only option.
