Title: New Here....Advice Needed PLS
Post by: brendanchambers on July 28, 2020, 04:44:24 PM

Hey Everyone.

i'm new here....this week i put my a whole heap of my hard earned down on a 69 RoadRunner 383...

I'm importing from the USA and it's going to be here by the end of the year, hopefully.

my question is about Club Rego, i will need to be part of a historic car club, i'm not big on going to every event, i guess i want to be a pretty casual member as i live a srsly busy life......any suggestions which club to join?

i live in newcastle, so either a club in the hunter valley, central coast or sydney would be best....unless there's a national club that is pretty common.

LMK

Thanks.

Hi Brendan,
AMCCA is predominantly sydney and wollongong based. Plus we have a requirement to attend a number of runs/meetings so may not suit what you are looking for.

There is a list of recognised clubs provided by the RMS.
https://www.rms.nsw.gov.au/documents/roads/registration/get-nsw-registration/vehicle-sheets/historic-vehicle-clubs.pdf (https://www.rms.nsw.gov.au/documents/roads/registration/get-nsw-registration/vehicle-sheets/historic-vehicle-clubs.pdf)

There are 13 clubs around Newcastle and a couple of them look like they may suit your needs.  One for example....

Newcastle Boys And Their Toys Car Club Incorporated 114 Violet Town Road BELMONT NORTH NSW 2280 Kim Broadbent 0418 975 971 ckbroadbent@bigpond.com

You could also try the hunter valley Chrysler club with your sweet Mopar. I own a 68 RR. They are the club that puts on the Chrysler wake run at canton beach each August.

I would suggest that you contact these guys
https://ansma.com.au/membership/
Very easy to get along with and club reg is not a great problem
I was with AMCCA until I moved to Melbourne a few years ago,I moved back to NSW and ended up at Raymond Terrace and a friend of mine suggested ANSMA
They are really easy to get along with and also have a hassle free club rego system that I had both of my vehicles on ...both since sold now,replaced with an SLK Mercedes
