Knowing that you have built your car to a very high standard complying to all relevant regulations along the way then begs the question on exactly what/why the vehicle cannot be presented for VIN# allocation and registration.

My understanding is the car is regularly checked by an engineer who then signs off on the car with a covering letter advising you to present the car for registration. Your State registration branch should then register the car.

If they refuse the engineer and you have a valid reason to ask why not.

Unfortunately, this is a problem in every State. As Kris Kincaid has pointed out the ASRF have worked hard to obtain an SR plates and recent changes have seen the introduction for ICV to be register form either 45 day or 90 day use.

A log book is kept and the car can be used at anytime over the 45 or 90 day period.

Cars can be moved up to 100 meters on the road without filling in a day use.

Hmm about to go National as a permit scheme. When you consider the little use we give our vehicles it is a not a bad option. Also it appears that all vehicles engine etc. Combinations can. Be registered this way.

I just saw a car with a 351w and top loader registered this way. The motor was from a early 80's Fairlane.

I can see enough of our cars being declined for full registration and a joint legal action being taken against Ministers and registration authorities. At the end of the day these are not cheap cars and builders are not 18 year old hoons. Whilst this may seem extreme it will make a Transport Minister take notice. Hmm 4 or 5 contribute to a legal claim works out cheap as this I would think would be sorted in a Ministers office by staff there...
