Owning a classic car is more than just owning a vehicle — it’s preserving history. At Rivercity Roadworthys and Mechanical, I proudly provide specialist mobile roadworthy inspections for classic cars across Brisbane and Redlands, delivering the highest level of care, respect, and mechanical expertise directly to your door.

With over 30 years of experience in the automotive trade as a fully qualified mechanic, I understand that older vehicles require a different level of knowledge, patience, and mechanical sympathy. Whether your vehicle is 10 years old or 70 years old — age does not matter — your pride and joy is treated with the utmost respect at all times.

🛠 30+ Years of Mechanical Experience With Early & Classic Vehicles


Not all mechanics understand classic cars — and not all inspectors should be inspecting them.

At Rivercity Roadworthys, your inspection is carried out by a veteran mechanic with over three decades of hands-on experience, including:

  • Carbureted engines

  • Early braking systems (drum & early disc)

  • Classic steering and suspension setups
