This is what you would need to do once you get it here:
Chassis would need to pass beaming & torsional testing.
Need door side intrusion bars fitted to ADR specs.
If in QLD etc you would also need a fibreglass impact test.
Convert it to right-hand drive. Not sure about factory five, but they might offset the engine/tunnel to the right-hand side.
Pretty sure you would have to do your own engine/transmission mounts for LS1 or Boss 5.4.
Find an engineer that is happy to approve something like this.
Got through more drama than most with local transport authority.
Basically you take the risk that you may never be able to get it approved.
QLD guys just recently got to see a Factory Five up close and personal. We now have one in our club. It was a personal import though, approved and registered with side pipes and all the other nice original stuff.
Personally I wouldn't bother with a Factory Five, although a nice car, they are nothing special. We have as good, if not better Cobras and better Cobra shapes here in Aus. The US has some very nice replicas though, some of those could be worth the hassle.
