Changing registration details question

[cheese]

I'm looking into re registering one of my cars that i've had sitting around for a while



One of the details with , the pace that holds car records, is not correct.

they say the chassie number of my car is 4910037679 when really its Y910037679.

Does anyone know if there is a way i can get them to change there records?

the problem is that at the moment the car is only a rolling shell so their is no way to prove that my car is the car that they have on record, and they have made a mistake. And as the car was stolen and recovered, i have no written proof of ownership.

This is Obviously a mistake at there end as there is no such thing as a 4910**etc bluebird all bluebirds of this shape have a letter at the start of their chassie code for example P910, Y910 N910 etc.

here is a link to it in car jam

don't worry that it looks rough in the picture, i have have a couple of cars worth of the important parts.

Hi Mike

I'm not sure of the answer here. I suggest that to get the ball rolling you contact a TSDA (VTNZ, AA, VINZ etc) and discuss it with somebody there; otherwise you could contact NZTA, who may be able to go back through all of the records for this car and locate the error. Being a 2 door it's likely to be a Japanese import, so there may be some documentation still available on file from it's importation.

Cheers, Justin

Your local testing station or compliance shop will be able to help with correcting the number but seeing as you're re-registering the car anyway it will be corrected on the system during the compliance, if you need any help with this contact me at VINZ chch
