About The Vintage & Classic Car Hirer\u2019s Australia (VCCHA)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Vintage & Classic Car Hirer\u2019s Australia (VCCHA)<\/strong> is an association for accredited event transportation operators and owners of chauffeur-driven vehicles, including limousines, prestige, and classic cars. Membership includes participation in the annual $20 million group public liability insurance policy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

History of the VCCHA:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Originally established in the early 1970s as The Vintage & Classic Hirer\u2019s Association Inc.<\/strong>, the association was founded in NSW by a passionate group of classic car owners. Coordinated by secretary and member Brian Morris<\/strong>, the group met regularly to share their love for classic vehicles at car shows, weekend outings, and social events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sadly, Brian passed away in February 2020<\/strong>, but his legacy lives on through the association. Many of the original members have continued to run their vehicle hire businesses, offering chauffeur-driven classic car rentals for weddings, corporate events, school formals, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2012<\/strong>, Deborah-Jane (DJ) Gillard<\/strong>, owner of Kombi Celebrations<\/strong>, became a member of the VCCHA. Following Brian\u2019s passing, DJ was approached to help prevent the closure of the association, which would have greatly affected its 50+ members<\/strong>, particularly the continuation of the crucial $20 million public liability insurance policy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In August 2020<\/strong>, with the support of the association’s insurance broker, a new association was formed, and the name was slightly changed to The Vintage & Classic Car Hirer\u2019s Australia Inc.<\/strong> (still referred to as VCCHA), ensuring the continuation of the group policy for all members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
