vic club rego age Page 6

In Victoria, a vehicle generally becomes eligible for the Club Permit Scheme (club rego) when it is 25 years old from its build date.

There’s also a separate Street Rod category for pre-1949 rods and replicas, but for most classics the magic number is 25.

You’ll need to be a member of an approved car club, complete the paperwork (45- or 90-day permit), and provide a roadworthy or club safety inspection as required.

It’s not for daily commuting; it’s limited-use with a logbook, so treat it like a special-occasion suit rather than everyday work boots.

Rules do evolve, so confirm the latest details with VicRoads before you roll up with your pride and joy.
