Hi all,

long time lurker (w/o account), first time poster.

Anyways, I was wondering if there's a way to register a classic car with engine swap as a "Classic Car" in Dubai. Basically I'm interested in buying a 260Z/280Z with a V8 engine swap. So, are there any prerequisites in order to be able to register such car. Or does it have to be through "wasta"?

You could apply for a Sharjah classic car plate but only cars older that 1975 are eligible.
Since you can't do that, a V8 swapped Z car would require wasta.
