Thanks guys.
I started getting van ready last night so im not feeling as sad.
This is what the trailer looked like at the end of day one.
Fully legal by 4pm and painted that night.

Wheels are 18inch deep dish.My apprentice destroyed his skyline so they cost me bottle of JD with directional low profiles on them.
Whole thing cost $530 then i added lockbox etc.hope to get 1000+.
It was a hard days work to build.Not alot of money arround at the moment though.

This is my sales auction.

Shred,

some states/country all you have to do is have it weighed or inspected. Really easy. My trailer is home made and I had my police buddy inspect it and I took the form down to the tag office and paid for a tag. Very easy.

Trailer rego is easy as here.
You build it take it in for warrent of fitness.They check the trailer over as if for normal warrent.
Then you fill out registration papers and they issue you a numberplate.
If they trailer is branded professional build they put that on registration.
Otherwise it is classed home built.
First seven years you get one year long warrents and there after 6months long.
Process costs $90 New Zealand for warrent rego and plate.
After that its about $65 per year.

These are my van mods for taking bike now.

Trailer sold tonight for 900.Cost me 530 to build so made money and had 17months use from it so not to bad.
Had hoped to get more dollars but take what you can these days.
Serious lack of coins arround.Its a buyers market.

Trailer registration is even easier here, no inspection needed,just walk in and tell them you need to register a homebuilt trailer and pay the fees,you walk out with a plate
