I'm sure you'll get all your parts one day if he finds time to be busy on getting parts that you've paid for in advance.
It's funny now I have put mine together I found all the modifications that he had to do to the brake lines, who'd have thought that putting insulated p clips on the chassis to secure the brake lines would be so critical and time consuming.
Maybe the absolute truth will come out one day.
Thanks Rodknock I still have a lot of tuning to do but it starts and runs so that's the first step.

Soulman,
There is definitely a couple more alloy body cars in NSW and Vic that pop up from time to time.
Not sure how long they have been here for though.

does anyone know what happened to those perth cars? i don't think they could get compliance in the end...I could be wrong.
I am interested in the Kirkham as I am thinking of bringing one in for myself.
Is it worth starting a new thread discussing Kirkham import and compliance?

I first saw these cars about 4 years ago and they were pretty much complete but as of about 6 months ago they still aren't registered.
They wont say why? but if they spent 1/2 the focus on working on them as they do slagging off their local competition they might be a chance.
But seriously, who takes such a magnificent machine and fit's 2nd hand 4.6L Mustang engines in them anyway???
Not that Craig needs any defending on this forum but I think he is quite clear in his literature about the situation with registration on these vehicles.
In my opinion, its doesn't distract from what they are....magnificent works of art.
But a Kirkham thread would be good fun..... or maybe just a picture gallery without any words would work for me.... |

Craig hasn't even got a Kirkham registered there isn't even one of his own cars registered yet.
His literature is all bullsh!t until such time as he has.
His quotes about his specification on a Kirkham for full registration are bullsh!t until he achieves this.

Sorry mate...
I must have missed something....( Not unusual)....
But where does Craig state that he has one registered?
The only quotes that I can see on his site, are about what is "required" for rego.
You really are a Bitc* mate...sick of seeing your endless attack on Craig.
WE GET IT....you're unhappy about how things have gone...
I can only imagine what sort of customer you've been for Craig to deal with....It's doing my head in!
Just get on with your build, and then FFS get in it and drive off.
All my love,
Warren |
