Chopped is the understatement of the year!!! Love it mate. How hard is it going to be to get the glass to fit?

How hard is it going to be to get it registered ? Do you have at least 9 inches of windscreen height measured vertically?
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.

NSW is 8 inches of screen and #metres of vision in front , plus they use a template off your seat to measure head height and interferance , way more strict , Id say that it wouldnt pass our crap laws
