What build diary/pics are needed?
Does the IVA man expect a build diary and detailed photos and if so what am I expected to put in it? I couldn't see anything in the manual about
this but have heard people mention it in passing. Is it definitely required? Any examples I could follow?

I dont think its a specfic requirement, but its in case theres any places he cannot see (ie a fully enclosed riveted tunnel) just to prove you have
secured the pipes, loom etc adequately.
I think its more for the DVLA that the photos are useful, to prove the stripped parts of your donor were removed from the donor, and that you made the
car (to declare as an amatuer build).
For example an imported car would not have a build diary, but would still require IVA to be registered.

Ah - so is it actually for registration the diary is needed? Do you know where the guidance is to show me what I'm supposed to be keeping?
I am going for a new reg, so want to keep myself right!

I took a disc of photos to my IVA test, they were never asked for.
I included a disc full of build photos for the DVLA application, the CD was returned un-opened as I had sealed the case on purpose.

I wouldnt worry too much about photos, take some general build photos, and as I say anywhere that is enclose, just in case.
For DVLA registration the most important things you need are reciepts, specfically of the main items, chassis, engine, suspension, etc etc. and if you
using the one 'reconditioned to as new' part you, need a reciept for that too.

Same here, the disk was still sealed when it was sent back from VOSA/IVA. I think it's a case that if you don't send them they will
need to see them

In terms of Pics, do you really need to be in the pictures themselves?
I bought my kit part built so only have a receipt for that and someone else finished it off for me!?!?
Will I have problems with the pics I have with me not in them?

I also sent photos off on CD and printed and no idea if they looked at them
However I took the printed ones with me to the IVA test itself where they came in handy to show the tester the mounting points for the seatbelts in
the tunnel and how they were welded etc. Otherwise might have meant pulling more panels off.
So if you have photos of any inaccessible welds or mounts then might not be a bad idea.

I wasn't on any of them, but it was obvious that it was in a domestic garage. However, as I said, they didn't even look at them, probably
too much hassle to view them on a PC.
