Hi, I would like to know how many people would be interested in getting brand new factory under bonnet hood insulation moulding for their VL's? This will be same factory moulded under bonnet insulation as the vl came with?
Black insulation with the 11 clips needed for fitment. This will make your vl quite and finish off that factory look as it did in the 80's when they first came of the line.
Price will be around the $220 mark give or take depending on the interest.
Inbox me to register interest. Deposit will be needed for orders if all goes ahead.
See picture of what it will look like.
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

10-12-13, 11:51 GMT+10#14 It's not hard to see why people haven't jumped all over this.
Going by your rough price of $220 each for 1000 is $220.000, that's not pocket change.
Wanting people to give a deposit to someone who hasn't even said who they are for something no one has even laid eyes on because you haven't got a sample is also another problem.
Im not having a go here and I would take one in a second but you will have to put more into this before you get people lining up ready to put cash in your hands before they are even made.

The only way I could see this working is if people could pre-pay to the company on the condition that it was %100 refundable if it did not go ahead.

10-12-13, 13:17 GMT+10#17 ^^ agreed on realistic. you'd get your 1000 people though, restorers love this stuff and you have keen people in NZ also. give it a go mate, produce them, sell them. I may be interested also, once it gets going ofcourse. :D

10-12-13, 22:42 GMT+10#18 Alot of money to outlay if i cant sell them. just the tool to make them cost $100,000 then plus producing each unit. All has to be payed to the company making them. If i can get a confirmed number of people who want them would be nice. So far 20 people interested.
