Hi all, long time since I posted

Trying to sell my plates I've had for a number of years now. Since the car was sold interstate, I have no use for them

I have advertised them on eBay and currently have them up now - http://cgi.ebay.com.au/R32-Skyline-GTSt-Pe...=item27af52e730

What do you guys reckon they are worth? Is $350 too much or should I be asking more?

How hard is it to transfer them over? Any of your experiences would be good to hear

Cheers,

Chris

what you're really selling is your intellectual property, because you thought of it.

spot on.....if you think that your one random though is worth $350 then by all means its worth 350 lol......nice plates though

exactly its the wierdest market around. i cant beleive how much people have paid for plates in the past but each to their own.

something like "godzila" would be worth something but i dont think your plate will be that sought after.

good luck all the same

Is it actually legal to sell plates? Dont they remain the property of transport sa at all times?

The right to display the plates is held by the owner, and can be transferred for money.

It's a bit like if you had XXX-XXX plates on your car and someone nicked them, it doesn't mean you lose the right to display them. You just get a new set (if that makes sense!).

      Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.

      I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent.

      Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.

      So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
