I wouldn't mind. Although I think they eventualy were phased out because the headlights sat too low and the cars weren't complying to the design rules anymore. Wouldn't be able to register it if this was true

Twas a mexican concept wasnt it?
You could get it passed.
look at the lotus super seven kit cars and things like that.Those lights sit round ya knee.Open wheeled,no rollover protection....
If this can pass you should be in for sure.
Would be cool to see one tho!

Yes it was Brazillian... and they made heaps of different cars.
Like the Brazillia - a shortened version of the type 3 on a beetle chassis... some had beetle engines and I beleive some had golf engines....

I thought I had seen an SP at the Syney nationals the past few years... Left hand drive etc... I could be wrong..

I did see this kit car there...

the kit car is a 'riot' from the states.

i cant see how they can not register, if it complied to the period. ie they cant make you change the design now.
