In Tasmania we have a Special Interest registration scheme as well as the club rego.
Any vehicle over thirty years old can apply or any vehicle that is younger which is rare can also apply.
This gives the operator 52 outings a year. The cost is about $200 per year.
A log book is required to be filled in each outing. When we had our other classic car on this rego, was never stopped for a log book check in six years.

NSW appear to be following Vic. Here we have 45 day and 90 day Club Reg with a log book which has to be filled out every time you drive the car. Our cars qualify after 25 years though

I really like the what was aid about what the old car movement puts into the economy, if we all drove late model imported cars that will only provide jobs for a few people, going to you local parts shop, panel beater, motor trimmer etc keeps the economy going, about time it was recognised.

CLASSICS GET A BETTER RUN WITH CONDITIONAL REGISTRATION TRIAL
Minister for Roads Duncan Gay today announced club vehicles would be on the road again and more often under a new conditional registration scheme trial.
“I encourage you to register with a club for the trial if you have a little beauty tucked away in your garage, so you can bring her out into the sunshine and feel the freedom of the road more often,” Mr Gay said.
Original and non-original classic vehicles are currently restricted to club events and maintenance.
Under the two year log-book based trial, owners of over 30 year old vehicles that meet the safety requirements of full registration or the current Historical Vehicle Scheme will be able to opt-in via participating clubs for 60 days of general use each registration year.
“The current Historic Conditional Registration scheme remains unchanged as an option for enthusiasts but, this Government recognised that owners of conditionally registered vehicles had limited use – which was just restricting these mechanical pieces of art,” Mr Gay said.
“We’ve incorporated safe, sensible additions in consultation with the community and stakeholders so owners and the wider community can revel in these vehicles’ unique beauty more often.”
This NSW Liberals & Nationals initiative will bring NSW into line with several other states while boosting opportunities in the automotive aftermarket industry which contributes $11 billion to the Australian economy and employs 30,000.
The 60-day Classic Vehicle Log-book trial will commence on 1 October. To opt-in to the scheme contact one of the several hundred NSW enthusiast clubs or visit RMS NSW

Got my logbook today. Took less than 15 minutes including waiting time. The only issue awaiting clarification is : the press statement says 60 days general use as well as club events. So are the club events additional to the 60 days ? The logbook only has space for 60 entries.

Club Veedub. Although Sydney based there are plenty of regional and interstate members.

If you move to club rego to take advantage of this, is it a requirement to move to club plates, or will the logbook allow you to keep existing number plates?
I ask this, because I have a sentimental attachment to my existing number plates.

You will need new plates. They are smaller (motorcycle size) and end in H for historic. Check on which club you join because they all have varying rules about club participation before allowing members to access this privilege. With the new rules this may change.

To clarify , first you must have a vehicle with historic registration to opt in to the log book trial. This requires joining a recognised club and meeting their criteria for historic registration.
The RMS did have some introduction issues on day 1 (1 oct) and most branches were NOT issuing logbooks although I know of one person who was successful at a country branch.

Eligibility
1. You must be a resident of NSW, as is the case with normal registration.
2. You must have been a financial member of Club Vee Dub Sydney for a period of 12 months before applying for Historic Registration, and be personally known to the Club on a general level. Attendance at general meetings on a regular basis is the usual guideline, but attendance at normal club events is also encouraged.
3. Your VW must be 30 years old or older. The exact month of manufacture is not critical; it is only the year appearing on the compliance plate or indicated by the chassis number.
4. Your VW should be as close to original as possible with no alterations except for safety features such as seat belts and turn indicators, or period accessories and options.
Period options are allowed, which means that any options and accessories available for your VW, when it was made, can be fitted. This includes modern reproductions of Historic parts.
Consumables such as modern tyres, batteries and brake linings are allowed, and so are engine modifications to allow lead-free running.
Genuine Volkswagen parts from newer models, fitted in the interests of safety such as brakes or suspension parts, may also be accepted at the discretion of the Club.
5. In all cases Club Vee Dub Sydney is the sole arbiter on whether your VW is suitable for Historic Registration. If you have any doubts or questions, please contact the Historic Registrar.

Taken from Club Veedub page. So...., Does anyone know what performance upgrades are allowed with a vehicle on Historic Registration?
I know Club Veedub allow Okrasa parts to be fitted, however most of the other 'newer' VW performance companies in the USA are now more than 30 years old as well, like Gene Berg, CB Performance, Sway-Away, EMPI, Truehaft, Deano Dyno Soars etc etc.. Seems like the club has the discretionary powers to decide on a 'case by case' basis which seems a little arbitrary to me.
