Historic rego

[Dr Terry]

The wheels would increase track too much I guess. They are Road Rebels and are the same as everyone fitted in the day. As far as I know most 8 inch period wheels would increase track too much? I would rather that than the current issue of miss-informed people fitting Commodore wheels to HQ stud pattern though. I know that's irrelevant as far as RTA decisions on track increase go though.
The bucket seat thing..... They are Commodore seats but I have made a threaded plate to fit them so I didn't butcher the floor.
Oh this is why I hate the club rego thing. I want my ute how I want it. Not how some pencil pusher thinks it should be. So it stays unregistered.

I don't think you grasp the whole thing, it's not what 'some pencil pusher' decides, it's whether it is legally safe or not. If your threaded plate set-up is acceptable for rego, I see no reason why Commodore seats wouldn't be OK.

I agree that slightly over track is nowhere near as dangerous as Commodore rims on a WB, but it is the tape measure which tells the story. If you get a smart copper & his book says xxxx mm is the maximum track for your car & you're 5 or 10 mm over that you can get a canary, but how likely is that ? 7 or 8-inch rims look OK on HQ to HZ as long as it's not dumped.
