ADR Compliance
I've got a 64 bug I'm in the process of restoring/modding. I can't find any info on whether or not it needs to comply to ADR specs. All I can see
is ADR apply to cars built on 1 Jan 1969 or later.
I'm not planning any stupid/dangerous stuff, I just need to know if I'll need a mod plate or not. Anyone know? I'm in QLD by the way.

You won't need to comply to ADR but you will need mod plate / engineering for anything you change
If you put Recaro seats in, then that would need to be plated

If you are staying stock and just replacing rust and repainting then you do not need too.
I personally would not drive a car without seatbelts however if I had the option so it is worth thinking about them.
I did not get mine engineered to start with. I will now.
In that case you need the adr stamped belts from places like the Busstop or direct from the manufacturer.
Then a engineering plate costs about $120-300 depending on where you go.

Seat belts, disc brakes and new seats are on my list. Possibly 6 or 8 point cage too. As well as an engine swap. And just upgrading all the old stuff
I find newer gear for.

Be real careful with the cage. I would definitley consult your states appropriate engineer plate/ report approval. You wouldn't want to weld it in
and find you have to take it out.
