Blue plate? What does that mean in Victoria?

It was blue plated in QLD. I really should have mentioned that somewhere.

In QLD It means the modification has been inspected and certified/approved.

Its only inspected and certified in Qld, no good for any other state.
Would need to be engineered again in any other state for a blue slip/road worthy, $$$$$$
Good luck with the sale :)

1. What I'm selling

1988 Suzuki Sierra
Mechanically in great shape however its far from roadworthy. Needs time spent on it.

It has a 1.6L EFI G16A engine and a 1L surge tank under the hood. Its also had a significant suspension and body lift fitted to it (around 4 inches all up)
The engine and the front bucket seats are QLD Blue Plated. It has some surface rust in a few spots over the body, but all serious rust has already been repaired.

Since I've had the car I have done a fair bit of work to the beast, but I'm only about halfway finished and have lost interest.

What I've done:
Cut out rusted area below the windscreen and welded in new steel.
Replaced Shock absorbers
Replaced leaking radiator with brand new honda civic radiator (with electric fan and shroud)
Installed rock slider to one side of the car (other side needs minor modifications as some lines interfere with the bolt on location)
Stripped the inner floor of the car to bare metal, welded up all the excess screw holes from 25 years of things being installed
Painted the inner floor of the car with Rustbullet
Covered the entire inner floor of the car with Dynamat Xtreme
Replaced MDF door liners with Aluminium checkerplate
Replaced warped dash with custom made aluminium dash
Removed faulty handbrake cable (still needs to be re-installed)
Installed ECU inside the cabin, just under the dash.
Installed Amplifier for radio.

What still needs to be done for roadworthy: (disclaimer: this is my opinion):
Fit flares to wheel arches (i have 4 x jeep flares)
Fit gauges to dash (I was going to get tablets and use a OBD2 link)
Install Seats
Repair handbrake
Reinstall windscreen wipers and steering wheel

What is included with the car:
2 sets of 4 wheels, (31" and standard)
2 Front bucket seats - have been fitted before
1 rear double bench seat - needs modification before fitting
Raptor ute-liner paint (i was going to paint the car floor with this)
A whole pile of parts that I pulled out of the car

Other Details
2. Location - Victoria, Carrum Downs.
3. Pick up only. You will need to tow this as it is NOT DRIVEABLE
4. Price - I want to start with $4000 ONO. At that price i will be losing around half of the money I have put into this car. (the custom dash was $1000 by itself)
5. If you can PM me, that would be great. I'll then PM you back with my mobile number and email. I can also give you my address if you want to come and have a look.
