I'm one for keeping it stock, purely based on the rarity factor. Just look at old Datto's, Torana's etc that are rare enough to see driving as it is let alone factory paint. Over the last few years I've seen a few cars where I've asked he owner if it has been restored to which they've replied no. This has impressed me far more than how much $$ they spent making it look factory. In the end though it is you call as it is your car but you could easily by a busted up exec, modify it and drive that but where's the fun in that.

Chris I know exactly what you should do Sell it to me

ill buy it too

It's getting painted as we speak and will stay original!! Got a roll of the black pinstripe and fresh set of badges for it, headlight protectors and turbo hubcaps, won't be modifying or selling but would trade for a modified LW5 plated Vl and cash either way

please put pics up when its painted, also whered you get the pinstripe from?

Will do mate, found it on eBay, it's the black two stripe 2mm and 4mm pinstripe that starts on the nose cone runs along guards, doors, quarters boot and same on the other side. Plans are like I said put pinstripe on, badges, club reg and then cruise it around or swap it for something modified

i need the pin stripe too, hope its good quality

Photos please!

I'm going to have a crack at doing this pinstripe myself, am thinking I'll follow the body contour and just measure/mark down front the top of bootlid for the back. Same pinstripe as the everglade one your mechanic had deano!! What a car that was/is!

Wish I bought that Everglade one now Chris Was unbelievably original Fellas here is Chris/katsas car ---------- Post added 20-04-18 at 18:50 ---------- ---------- Post added 20-04-18 at 18:51 ---------- Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

**** yea turbo hubbies and cruise it

Yeah I've got hubcaps for it, just getting tyres for rims tomorrow morning

painted it chris? didn't keep it 2 tone?

Hey there Mitch, it was originally monotone so I kept it that way, I would f proffered two tone but wanted to keep it as delivered. Has any one got a Vl fuel tank for sale that is in decent condition i.e not full of rust and stuff internally? Just a standard tank not a long range

I got a super clean painted standard one Chris you can have Flick me a text
