club rego requirements Victoria

[bobrob]

Hi all,just wondering are braided fuel lines leagle for roadworthy certificate for club rego in Victoria ? my xr8 is fully braided lines to tank and back ???

[Trevor 57]

Road worthy is a road worthy, there is not a 'special' one for club rego vehicles, they all have to meet the standard requirements, my tip would be to ask a RWC mechanic

I am assuming your XR8 is 25 years old and over, which means 1993 or older

As Trev said,

If it passes a RWC then it's fine. Our club requires a RWC to be considered for a permit

I am Vice Pres/Treasurer of a VicRoads approved Car Club, also a scrutineer.

Think that's a requirement of VicRoads - i.e. its all clubs now .. after a lot of them had OldMate self-scrutineer some American LHD imported VW Beetle with blown-big block Chev as "roadworthy" etc.

Club permit in Vic is basically same as full rego now .. RWC required, if post 69 and LHD then needs VASS cert, if RWC identifies as "modified" needs VASS cert. When some of the stuff that was on permits eventually change owners, will be interesting to see how they go getting permitted/registered again?

So what happens when the car is currently on full rego, and turns 25 and the owner wants to put it on club rego. Does it need a RWC? Considering it's already registered and on the road.

[EFFalcon]

Yes, still needs a RWC.

It's transferring from registration to a permit scheme.

All club permit vehicles manufactured after 1 January 1949 require a Certificate of Roadworthiness.

That sucks. I was going to put my NL on club rego in a few years but stuff like extractors would probably be knocked back on a RWC. So probably not worth it.

[OzJavelin]

Unfortunately a lot of people abused the system previously so here we are .....

[Trevor 57]

You don't need a RWC when transferring between clubs though

Why would extractors fail a RWC?

Some modifications are allowed for club permit, as long as it passes a RWC, extractors are usually fine. There is also VASS Certificates available for extremely modificed cars to get them on a Club Permit. Standard Cars have H plates and VASS Modified have M Plates

Going on his last activity time, no he hasn't, however, this area of the forum is open to the public and can be viewed without logging in.

Any reason why you ask? Anything you need followed up?

Also to answer your question in your first post about it being more than 25 years old, I would assume so going by his user title he owns a 93 EB.

[Trevor 57]

Yeah I did notice that he owns a EB XR8, so just sneaks in this year

Sneaks? EB's have been eligible for 2 years now
Where's almost yup to ED!

[Trevor 57]

but his 1993 is only eligible this year

Speaking of club rego, took a picture of this in Wodonga last week.
What's up with the number plate ?

[pcman]

its upside down

The numbers aren't cause I checked the front plate.

[BA-XT]

So if I had an ED Falcon in excellent condition, would that still be eligible? I ask because my BA I have no intention of selling and is in really good nick. I keep it clean and really well maintained. I only travel around 10,000km a year.

The problem is which club would you look at joining? Most falcon clubs are for GT'S or performance based cars?

[Trevor 57]

There are lots of clubs out there that aren't brand specific, ours is purely social, has bugger all to do with the cars. We are regional though and there are membership requirements

Go to the Vicroads website, they have a list of eligible clubs - https://www.vicroads.vic.gov.au/regi...d-associations

Ever read vicroads regulations? By the letter of the law, extractors are illegal.

Yup, August 1993 ;)
Also the month Ford stopped producing the EB and we’re looking forward to the ED’s joining.

As soon as your car turns 25 then you can go through the process. There is a club specific to your car! We used to have frequent kebab nights at Yozzy’s!

Several times. Sorry must have not seen that, can you copy the specific rule please?

[Trevor 57]

Bugger me, our club went to the Cobram Swap Meet and Car Show yesterday and this car belongs to a new member of our club, EB XR8 Sprint

If only the EB XR8 Sprint was real!

[Trevor 57]

Aren't they? This bloke has the ability to access cars that most of us wouldn't be able to

Only Sprint in the E-Series range were:
EA - dealer pack
ED - Tickford

That EB is a bitsa by the look of it.

[Trevor 57]

ahh OK, I did google it after your post and you are right, ED
