Title: Message
Thanks for the advice Rick and Chris!
 
The rust at the moment in places would definitely cut a few inspectors fingers ;) So tomorrow I'll go and scrub away at it with some anti-rust gear and see how it comes up. Don't have any equipment at home, so makes it hard if it needs proper patching. Next weeks I'll definitely find out about competition regoing it and checking that list. Too many things on at the moment and not enough time before the first event so a nice trailer trip out to bindoon on Sunday (but at least if she breaks down I can still get home as was pointed out by an organiser ;) But Datsuns don't break down right!! Oh, hang on maybe if I crash it.
 
yep, I'm WACC - have I maybe seen you around?

Adrian.
The rego people here in Perth, don't mind rust aslong as they can wipe their hand down the whole car with out getting cut by rust.
Why not do a quick fix with the rust, and take it over the pits, new rego will also help with any scrutineering.
I know of a lot of people who do compete in the local W.A. scene, and regoed cars don't get looked over as hard as non regoed cars during scrutineering.
I do know the scrutineerers do like to look after the officials and recovery crews, they do not like recovering cars that could be dangerous, even mild cuts and abbrasions from a little rust that could be easilly fixed or patched up before a event.
 
Main things to look for here in W.A. when going over the pits are, clean engine bays, not too noisy exhaust system,
(reverse light switches working I got pinged on this one) I went up the road sprayed CRC on the switch and went back and passed, steering components and bushes can't have any slack (nothing rattling around) and good pressure in the braking system. Handbrake must work, as should the handbrake warning light on the dash, indicator lenses, tailights, brake lights, and headlights.
 
Any how good luck with it, and have fun with your events, you might want to catch up with us maybee, my mates have a Stanza, but with 13B P.P. in the engine bay.
 
Which car club are you in??
I am pritty sure they are in the WA car club.
 
Have a great day.
Rick White.

Hi.
 
Hope someone can help with a few questions. I have an unregistered Datsun Stanza in Perth, West AU. It runs great and as far as I can tell would be pretty much road worthy.
 
A nice set of rally tyres now adorns it as I will be competing in gravel khanacross club events. I really don't want to have to tow it to each event and apparently I can get a Concessional Vehicle Licence for it that will allow me to drive to and from events and to and from any garage work.
 
I don't think my club is a 'vintage car club' and I think the car has to be 25yrs old (it's a 1979) and these are requirements to get this licence, but ignoring these has anyone got one of these licences and how strict are they giving them out in Perth? The car has some rust under where the boot closes on one side and at the base of two of the doors, that's it.
 
Or if I was to try and road register it how strict would they be on the rust?
 
Cheers.
