I got the info from ASRF technical advisory commitee rep in WA. I hope he is wrong because the FFR kit looked pretty good. The kit I saw had a modern chassis. The national guidelines can be downloaded from the ASRF website. Below is part of the definition of a street rod from the national guidelines. “A Street Rod shall mean a vehicle that has a body and frame that were built before 1949, that has been modified for safe road use, or a replica of a vehicle the body and frame of which were built before 1949.” Pezza |
Lobelly said it...look at the 'new' flatheads that are available now...unbelievable ! fuel injection, alloy blocks, ardun heads, ardun blocks...it's all there. AND there is nothing like the sound of a flathead. As you know . A hotrod will register way easier than a cobra or late model kit car. Just a thought what do the rta class a factory five hotrod as ? a kit car or a hot rod.? Maybe slip a 33 crossmember in there somewhere .

Thanks all. A bit to think about. I have been leaning towards the LS3. Stripping and relocating the unsightly bits.
After speaking with ASRF reps in Victoria, I will go down the direction of Street Rod rego. I think. Allows a lot of leeway..%/ New guidelines make this direction a good option and values of cars do not vary that much between the full rego. street rods and those on the street rod rego. Mmmm will see where we go. Thanks for the advice and discussion. Bernie |

You can get an alloy flathead...with injection...;)

Bernie,
My understanding in NSW is that you can build a hot rod and register it as an original vehicle outside current ADR's if you tread carefully. By fitting a late model engine you will need to comply with the rules related to that date - including cat converters and charcoal canisters. Because the FF kit is not a direct replica it will be regarded as an ICV, I think club rego is a waste - who wants to have limited rego and tell other people when you plan to drive your car??? One day I hope to build a car that is cool, yet has a back seat to take more than one person for a ride. http://www.strongtorquecustom.com.au/ My 2C Ben |
Yes a rear seat would be a different thing..%/
The Club rego is not that restrictive. |
How about a hemi !
