roadworthy question
just about to send a 67 beetle out for a roadworthy up here in QLD and my only concern is will it still pass if the back bunper is not on. It has been
in a accident and was hit in the bumper and has bent the mounting bracket where the threads are on the rear panel and i cannot get the bumber on
unless i do some major panel beating.
so i am hoping it will pass then i can do the panel beatingat a latter date.

you may have to fit shorter tail pipes -other than that clean it up and make it look like its not supposed to have the rear bumper and you should be
right.
ps find someone dodgy to roadworthy it that always helps!

The rear bumper is required for RWC. You may get by without it but technically speaking you will have to have it.

I think the rule is something like you are not alowed to have any protrusions sticking out from the front or rear of your car..
