Default Older Car Blueslip Standards

Ok so its not a ford but i have obtained my Nans 1967 Toyota Corona, am going to get it back on the road as a project on the side. It hasnt been registered for 3 years, was just wondering if it came standard with no side mirrors and front blinkers (has them on the side of front panel and below front bumper but are white/combined globe with parker) does it have to have them fitted for rego ? I believe it doesnt as the car was manufactured like this? Also the rear seat (bench) does not have seat belts, so if i was to carry passengers in the back would it have to have them fitted or not as they did not come with them from the factory ?

I was going to register it normally, not through a club.

Any thoughts appreciated !

Seatbelts are a no brainer. Even if its legal ( which I doubt ) you'd want to have them anyway.

As far as I am aware you can register any car however it came from the factory. so if it had no seatbelts then i dont think you need them now but i would want them anyways.

Also with the lights i think the same applies unless it is a state government thing that they can change

If the car came with no seat belts you do not need them, however if you fit seat belts they have to be engineered as they are a safety item and a modification.

The car can be registered the way it was manufactured no problems at all.

Yeah for sure i wouldnt carry passengers with no belts, and i dont want to install new ones, want to keep it stock was just a thought. I dont think the little 4 cyl Powerglide would carry any more than 2 adults !
