Background.

The HSV Owners Club of NSW (incorporating HDT) Inc. welcomes car owners who have purchased these unique, Australian-built vehicles that have created interest both locally and internationally.

These cars are amongst the world’s fastest production sedans, giving performance, handling and comfort at half the cost of their European equivalent. All this whilst maintaining their identity as Australian cars built for Australian conditions.

The culture of the Club is informal with an emphasis on family participation. Club activities are many and varied including:

*Sunday Drives
*Motor Sports including Supersprints
*Concourse and Show and Shine
*Motor Show and Promotional Displays
*Special Events including Drag Days and Dyno Days
*Weekends Away
*Driver Training, plus many other activities.

The main aim of the Club is to create interest for all members on more than one level and that their families can also find excitement and enjoyment in the Club’s activities.

Hence the motto of HDT Special Vehicles, “We Build Excitement”, evolved into our club motto, “We Drive Excitement”.

History

The NSW Branch of the HDT Owners’ Club was formed in 1985 with eligibility for membership being open only to owners of vehicles improved by the former HDT Special Vehicles Pty. Ltd. In 1988 membership was extended to owners of Commodore and Statesman models enhanced by Holden Special Vehicles, and in 1991 the club changed its name to the HDT-HSV Owners’ Club of N.S.W. 2001 saw another name change.

It is now named the HSV Owners Club of NSW (incorporating HDT) Inc. This change was made to bring unity to all HSV Owners Clubs around Australia and New Zealand.

Eligibility.

Owners of genuine HDT or HSV vehicles are eligible to join the Club. The owner must present the car on the request of the Committee (if required) to substantiate the eligibility of the vehicle.
HDT cars built after the Peter Brock ownership of the HDT company are not eligible, which means only HDT cars with a build plate number 4246 or earlier are eligible.
If a vehicle is a VC or VH series but does not bear a HDT plate, it may be eligible to be plated. These vehicles are eligible for membership of the Club.
