Hi all,

I need to transfer a VIC registered 65 bug to NSW and I know I need to get Blueslip then greenslip to go and get rego.(It has Roadworthy certificate from VIC in Sept so I am not too worried) but are there any recommendations for someone who does a blueslip around Inner West Sydney, or Sydney in general?

Also it doesn't have reverse lights or passenger side door mirror are these a problem in NSW for a 50 year old car?

Cheers

Not required.

I read it on samba, so it must be correct.

Sometimes Volkswagen dealers sell spare parts. Amazing isn't it!😂

Hi noblenick
I did the same with my '69 Bug a couple of years ago. I don't have any official information, but I did my blueslip in conjunction with a local VW mechanic and the neighbouring engineering/mechanic blueslip provider (they worked together). So if you can find a VW workshop who authorises blueslips as well, you are on your way, I would think.
Regarding the reverse lights and the l/h mirror, the word to me was that the car was standard and was sold in Australia in '69 without those features, so it was not a requirement-I had the same concerns as you.
Also there is a law in NSW I believe that says a passenger vehicle must have left and right mirror if a side or rear window is tinted to certain level. I have no reversing lights (I turn the hazards on most of the time) , and only a right hand mirror and no tinted windows.
Good luck, Rob.

Thanks All.

Cheers Barry. Apologies I didn't see your response with this one re: Lou. Will give him a call tomorrow.

Cheers Rob.. Thanks for the heads-up. My 65 doesn't come with Hazards or reverse lights nor a passenger side mirror but windows aren't tinted in anyway.
