[damage]

Go see grand tourer restorations. 3 of the cars he has are staying in Melbourne.

Alternatively talk to Kirkham yourself. He is well aware how to get these cars in the country and most of what needs to be done for compliance.

I have a Kirkham and the assembly was simple, certainly a lot easier then certain people made it out to be and like you I was time poor but after paying someone who didn't complete the job went it alone. My car should be full compliance registered in Queensland in the coming weeks.

Read my build thread there's plenty of pictures. "New build Kirkham KMP 709."
This should provide useful information to help your decision.
