About Our Club
Founded in 2001, STHARC is a welcoming, family-friendly club for anyone passionate about older vehicles. Based in Queanbeyan and the Southern Tablelands, our members enjoy a mix of classic cars, trucks, motorcycles, tractors, caravans, and more — all with one thing in common: a love for vehicles over 30 years old.
You don't need to own a vintage vehicle to join — just an interest and enthusiasm for heritage motoring. Our members enjoy regular local and multi-day runs, static displays, charity events, and the chance to share restoration tips and stories.
Stay connected with the community through our monthly magazine, The WHEEL, featuring events, highlights, and a "car of the month." STHARC is also affiliated with regional motoring councils, giving members access to historic registration benefits.
Whether you're a seasoned restorer or simply curious, heritage motoring is a rewarding, accessible hobby. Join STHARC and experience the fun, camaraderie, and history that comes with every drive!
