Your best off joining an established club, there are a few around. I've been told you need to be a member for a certain amount of time plus attend so many meetings a year before your even considered for club rego. But still if anyone in melbourne has the time to start a new club and organise heaps of shit that would be cool, but you have to be dedicated, I wouldn't want to join some half arsed attempt that would just waste everyone's time. My two cents

Im with AKA It's been my experance with clubs that it devides members into 2 groups the ones that are dedicated & do all the organising & the rest that just turn up & take advantage of all the hard work of just a few This happens in all clubs I think it's too much trouble just to get cheap rego Myself I want to drive my BEDDIE all the time so it's full rego for me Just my 2bobs worth Cheers Reid

The bigger the club - the bigger the beuracracy.

Although I have seen small clubs work.

The problem with joining an established club is, that they are dedicated to panelvans, HQs so on, yes they allow bedfords and big vans in, but the club is dedicated to promoting small vans. To my knowledge there is not a 100% dedicated bedford van club in australia, so if someone wants to do it, i say go for it.

I DON'T LIKE CLUBS, if it's only for insurance, I'm still not in. Been their, done that. If I want to argue, I'll talk to the wife or even better, her family
This is my veiw, and it won't change, If you's do do it, all the best with it. Some people need them and want them, some run them and some follow, some just join for insurance and you won't see them. Either way, it's not me
make it reliable, or smash it with a big hammer

Dedicated bedford club, is that what you guys are really after? Dont you like perving on other vans hqs xbs drifters? Do I dare say tra tran.. no. Buga is your dedicated Bedford club as unofficial as it may be, but I think all models van clubs is where its at, varitey, different ideas etc, show your shit off to the rest of them who don't really know bedfords. I'm sure any old school vanner would be welcomed with open arms, it's the same era, the beautiful 70's ( even tho I wasn't alive to see it shine)  as for the new school vans getting around, well that be might a different story, but who am I to judge. If your joining a club whether it be for reg purpose or not you still have to participate, or theyll get the shits on and you won't get your club reg or they'll take it off ya or something.  Another few cents for the people..
