    There will be an awful lot to do when the engine is in, but at least it won't be bloody welding.

    to my (very limited) knowledge it used to work on a points system when it is a modified rather than kit car based on what is changed engine, gearboxes, axles etc.

    stop press** how will it pass the emissions tests with twice the gas quantity registered for that model at the mot - can you get away with only starting one engine ?
    answering that one will be down to special circumstances consultation by the tester to vosa
