About 4 times the concessional rego but worth it.
I bought a 200litre drum of methanol home in it last week,227kgs, I wonder what the load carrying capacity was for them when new.

Queensland must be dearer than us.

Historic rego inc green slip is $56 a year.

Same full rego with green slip would be 10 times that.

But so far no annual inspection required.

Just a friendly reminder to the truck owners running antique tags: check with you local Motor Vehicle authority and your insurer about any limitations of use with the antique tag.

Here in Moose-sylvania, if your truck wears an antique tag, you may NOT carry any cargo in the back. Not even a bag of peat-moss from Home Despot. Many guys do it, but legally the police can cite you for it.

Check your local listings...
Do they let you have passengers ride along? Jeeze!

I am going to build a slide on camper for my 28 pickup.

It will resemble an old shack with a gable shingle roof and a chimney.

Not as radical as these hillbilly ones, but along these lines.

Just a slide on, no original pickup body modifications.
