Introduction
The NZ Car Construction Manual is a comprehensive technical manual encompassing the many aspects of vehicle design, modification and construction. Over the years the scope of the manual has expanded to encompass many types of modified vehicles. It is developed by the Low Volume Vehicle Technical Association Inc (LVVTA), and is incorporated by reference into the LVV Standards, which are in turn incorporated by reference in the NZ Land Transport Rules.
Purchasing hard-copy manual
To purchase, click on the ‘Add to Cart’ button. This adds the item to your shopping cart, which will appear on the right hand side of the page.
Once you have made your selection, click on the ‘Checkout with PayPal’ button. The website will then open a secure payment window, where you can choose to either make a one-off credit card payment (no PayPal account is required), or you can pay using your existing PayPal account (your PayPal username and password will be required).
Once you have completed this payment, you will be directed back to the LVVTA website.
During the purchase process, your name, delivery address, telephone number and email address will need to be provided. Make sure that you provide a legitimate delivery address. LVVTA assumes no responsibility for incorrectly provided delivery addresses.
Overseas purchasers will receive a separate invoice for shipping.
Once the purchase process is complete you will receive two confirmation emails – one from Paypal and one from the Online Shop.
The email will contain purchase details and your shipping address. If you don’t receive an email within 15 minutes, and if you’re sure you entered your email address correctly, then you may need to check that your email program (for example Microsoft Outlook) or email provider (for example Google Gmail) hasn’t captured the email in a spam or junk mail filter. You will also be sent an email from Paypal confirming your payment. This is your proof of purchase – no further receipt will be issued. Note that LVVTA does not provide technical support for non-receipt of emails.
