VIN number
Hi all.
Next week I want to register my Minor in Holland. The Minor is imported from New Zealand and therefore is a completely knocked down version.
Did the CKD Minors in New Zealand have a VIN number stamped in the chassis? I have been told that In Holland a requirement is a stamped in VIN number.
Cheers,
Rein

I did get useful information from the Dutch Morris Minor forum, but no clarification regarding the New Zealand Minors. I don't want to stamp in the V.I.N. number myself because I am not sure what the requirements are. (And I have to buy the tools).
For the authorised person to do this at the testing station costs roughly €80.

The heater in my car is (if I am not mistaken) made in Wellington New Zealand. It is basic and not very efficient but was just able to keep us warm in the New Zealand (north island near Wellington) winter. Outside temperatures would occasionally drop below zero.
One hose is connected to the top of the cylinder head (thru a tap) and the other hose is connected to an inlet at the bottom of the radiator. (right hand side). If you are interested I can make a photo later on.

thanks for the pictures
very nice and neat heater
it does not even feed the demisters under the frontscreen
or am i wrong
the offtake from the radiator is the same arrangement as in my minor
the tap on the cylinder head is one of the two common types
i will submit a picture of mine in about two weeks since my car is garaged about 200 miles from where i am at the moment

i think it is not only rotated by 90 degrees but is in fact a different heater as mine does not have the two hatches that yours has
but yes mine does have a wide outlet on the bottom as well and keeps the feet quite warm
besides i forgot to take a picture of the engine heater offtake will do that next time i am at home
