Bloody neat engine bay, looks good mate! I reckon that steering wheel would look better in black though. But sweet car! Oh, and no power steering? Is it a real c |_| nt?

Nah dude I think these steering wheels only came out in silver which is why they are called the Silverjet. But it wasnt cheap $600 it was and my gearknob and pedals were $120 and $190 but their Momo. lol yeah it is a bit of a c*nt with no P/S but ive gotten used to it.

I think the VY SS rims are being installed on to many VL's, every one has them now. But I still agree that they do look awsome.

I actually havent seen as many VLs with VY SSs here in Newcastle for a longtime. They might be more popular in QLD. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I haven't seen very many on the road, but every one in here has 'em. In every magazine they have 'em. I'm going unique! Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
