Converting cup car for road use

[sleep envy]

I *think* someone on this board has road registered a cup car (maybe a 964).

Just wondering if it's a difficult task and whether this could be road registered too?

[nervous]

good god, thats yum.

Johnnywishbone did it with a 993 Cup RSR

Call Tracey on 07000 997 997

Just idle curiousity. If I found a stash of fivers down the back of the sofa then the post would have been phrased slightly differently

I'll have you know I went for a blat late last night in the rain.

Went straight to bed when I got home but couldn't sleep, was up half the night worrying about the amount of dirt that was on the car

Melvin Spear is the man but I think its not road registered any more.

there was a 996 cup for sale in the classifieds not so long ago which was road registered . . . . . so cant see why you cant have a 993 cup on the road (although I know didly squat about anything so could well be wrong)

well you could sell me your GT3 at a huge loss - thus offsetting the lack of depreciation on said investment?

i think 'melvs' 964rs cup is road legal, i saw it recently (mmm!) and didnt see a trailer, could be wrong though.
