A document on the importance of automotive heritage provided to Heritage NSW by the Council of Heritage Motor Clubs NSW.
Protecting the future of our automotive past is more than just museum displays, it is about ensuring that our automotive heritage is broadly appreciated and carefully preserved for future generations.
Protecting our automotive heritage overwhelmingly relies on individuals and groups who willingly take on the identification, preservation and use of heritage motoring artefacts. In using and displaying these artefacts as they were intended these individuals and groups share widely and frequently our automotive history with the wider community.

Shared to CHMC by Operating Heritage Australia this list provides key terms and definitions for owners, operators and custodians to describe objects of operating, engineered heritage, including motor vehicles and tractors they are conserving, restoring, maintaining or operating. The terms are also applicable to non-functioning or static engineered objects like machinery.
The terms here are used in everyday heritage practice. The Glossary's purpose is to ensure consistency in terminology. The terms and principles in the Glossary align closely with Australian and international practice developed by traditional buildings and museum heritage communities, BUT there are some differences in respect to terms more correctly applicable to and used by the Australian operating heritage community, and there are additional terms that specifically apply to engineered heritage. OHA chose to give priority to terms used in Australia by the operating heritage community and have tried to use “everyday English”.
