Correct me if I'm wrong guys, 1st get in contact with the local holden car club, once you have a membership I believe you then contact QT tell them you want a club rego, show them your club membership which will then limit you to driving the car on club runs, getting to and from club meetings and that's about it. Otherwise contact QT and ask them.

You will need to follow the standard registration procedures for a vehicle as well as completing a Vehicle Registration Concession Application (form F3937) and providing the following documents as proof of eligibility:

Club membership: Evidence of current membership with an incorporated car club or association must be provided at the time of application for the concession. Vehicles other than historic ambulances and fire-fighting equipment must be registered in the name of the car club member/s (individuals only).

Dating certificate: A dating officer (or club official) of an incorporated car club or association must inspect the vehicle to certify the year of manufacture and authenticate that the vehicle is in its original condition. This certificate, which must be on club letterhead or other official club documentation, must identify the vehicle and the year of manufacture.

Restricted vehicle use
Vehicles registered under the scheme have certain limitations placed on their use. This is reflected in the reduced fees and compulsory third party insurance premium. Registered operators must confine their vehicle's use to:-

• participating in rallies organised by incorporated car clubs
• participating in processions for which a Special Events Permit has been issued under the Transport Operations (Road Use Management –Accreditation and Other Provisions) Regulation 2005
• exhibiting the vehicle in displays, fetes or similar functions conducted for religious, charitable or educational purposes
• ceremonial purposes (weddings, formals) involving immediate family members provided this is not done for fee or reward. Immediate family means parents, grandparents, sons, daughters, grandchildren but not extended family relationships such as nephews and nieces
• preparing for, proceeding to, and returning from the above activities
• direct travel to and from an Approved Inspection Station for the purposes of obtaining a safety certificate before offering the vehicle for sale
• travel in order to have the vehicle repaired. There is no distance restriction in these circumstances. However, such travel must be reasonable and openly justified by the vehicle operator.
• road testing within a 15 kilometre radius from the place where the vehicle is garaged. The purpose of the travel must be to road test the vehicle following repair or restoration and not for any other purpose. This does not include use as a means of transport.

I keep my 'toys' on full rego, but my insurance stupid cheap as its 'extreme limited use'... So I still get some financial benefits, but I can actually drive the car whenever I bloody well feel like it

yer i was thinking that insurance companies sometimes do a thing where if the car is hardly driven they put a huge cut in the cost so its cheap enough to not worry about the club rego and save a whole lot of money in other ways.... club rego is only good for show cars and drag cars that u want to use on rare occasions for the street
