Hi all
Got a chance of a very sick Matador it's almost flat packed and grown into the ground a fair bit and has worked in a sawmill as a wood tractor before being abandoned to the corner about 30 years ago, Jib has been folded forward on to the cab and all has now collapsed hence the flat pack comment, My problem is the owner was offered a price for the engine and gearbox in 2013 so he went ahead and sent the log book back and told them it was scrapped, roll ahead 5 years and the Matador is still in one piece hence my interest but my concern is ? Will I be able to re register with the same number ( paperwork and receipt from DVLA saying they acknowledge vehicle being scrapped ) or will they not re register old or new number due to vehicle being scrapped on paper back in 2013 .
Sorry it's long winded but I don't want to purchase the Matador if it cannot go back on the road.
