And you are correct. The original Cobra club, for want of a better description, was actually incorporated in the Bolwell car club in SA. In 1993 it split from the Bolwell car club and incorporated the National Cobra Car Club.

Even back then the issue of registration was considered a PIA. This is why RMC applied for and was granted a "low Volume" manufacturer certification which allowed it to issue it's own Vin numbers.

Those vin numbers enabled easy registration as long as the car was built strictly to the RMC build manual. (which was not worth the paper it was printed on)
What have I started here. Keep your powder dry boys. We are all on the same side and we don't need any 'Friendly Fire' injuries to evolve from this thread.

Les, I would be interested to hear more about RMC being classified as a "Low Volume Manufacturer". As you are aware, my car is an RMC and was built in strict accordance of their Build Manual. Can I still get a VIN number from them?
