Building a kit car in Japan

Was just wondering if anybody had imported the parts/components and built a kit car here…

  1. If you don’t change the overall dimensions or engine in the donor car, it’s actually very straightforward – as in basically no paperwork.

    If it’s just a moderate dimension change, and it’s not radical, then it’s some pretty simple paperwork and a quick inspection. Have done the process with motorcycles, added 5 minutes to the shaken process.

    If you’re radically changing dimensions, there may be questions about safety.

    If it’s a frame chop, or any other serious structural mod, it will be bureaucratic hell.

  2. Are you going to build a countach replica? That would be my dream but no idea where to start haha
