So this car is by definition, then, something that rhymes with the company that made a sewing machine ...

PFAFF ?

Strange terminology I thought!

“We are told that this included fitting a replacement shell from a rust-free 240Z California import”.

You can fit something like a replacement engine, gearbox etc. but not fit a replacement shell!

Seems to depend who you ask!

You said it but the DVLA will have the last say !

Of course you can, but just give it the no. of the replacement shell ...

 

[Rob Gaskin]

I think the point Darren is making is that you can't fit a shell to anything, everything fits to the shell.

 

[SeanDezart]

So let's call it as it is : not a replacement shell but replacement parts fitted onto a LHD shell converted to RHD.

We ought to invent a politically-correct name for that.

Rob- one doesn't fit a shell to anything - it is THE structure, the base - things are fitted to IT !

Ring Ring...... why don't you give me a call !

 

[SeanDezart]

An ABBA song ?

 

[chrisvega]

Glad to see you are awake Mr.Dezart, one point to you.
Just a little tune that comes into my head every time I see a car like this one, the car is missing an L, I'm missing an ER

I mean you CANT fit a shell to anything, everything fits to the shell!
I think that’s probably what you meant to type?

The terminology is wrong, you don’t fit a shell, the shell has parts fitted to it!

That's what I meant I missed the word 'can't'
