Club & Motoring News

Following a recommendation from a subcommittee led by our Vehicle Registrar, Dave Reid, the Executive Committee has made an in principle decision to proceed to make application to the DoT to take on concessional registration code C4C within the club.

It has been agreed that the Club will not be handling Street Rod Machines, Hot Rods or other highly modified vehicles. We will only be catering for vehicles that retain their original body structure.

As members may be aware, the published DoT Code of Practice for C4C is quite prescriptive and generally a little more complicated than code 404. Accordingly, there are a number of matters and procedures that will need to put in place, including DoT approval, before we will be in a position to commence placing code C4C vehicles on the club register. We will keep members informed as we progress.    

As well as opening on Wednesday mornings, the Club Mechanical workshop will now be open on the 4th Saturday of each month from 8 am to 12 noon. Why not put your car on the hoist and check it out, change the oil, grease etc. also minor repairs can be undertaken.

Bookings essential Please ring Kevin Cochrane on 0402675673 

The Spare Parts Shed located at the Clubrooms at 264 Hale Rd, Wattle Grove, will now be open on the 4th Saturday of the month from 9.00 am to 12 noon.

The idea of having the Spare Parts open on Saturdays is to make it accessible to those members who are unable to make Wednesday or before General Meeting Nights.

It is also a good excuse to take your Club Vehicle for a run.
