Default Re: NSW Historic Vehicle Log Book Trial

That's a good point. Its why the modified scheme is a great thing for us.
It takes the personal interpretation of the rules for historic rego out of the equation.

You can now register it on the modified scheme. All it will need is a pink slip or blue slip for a first time rego. Unless the rims are outrageously wide you shouldn't have any problems if you are a club member.

There was a time when 10 inch wide rims were legal on the rear of cars over a certain weight back then. I can't remember the weights but I think a Cusso would be in the category being a full chassis car. The regulation may not have been in for many years but it certainly puts your wheels in the frame for legality if they aren't very wide.

I don't fancy sourcing and using a set of 60 year old skinny steel wheels and then heading off down the M1 at 110 km/h so what is legal/better/safer - dangerous old rusty rims or better engineered alloy wheels
OK, they're not eligible under current H-plate rules, but the new system is being introduced in 2 stages. The 2nd stage is for legally modified street cars, which do not have to be 'period correct'.
