Even worse when you see a heap of Walkys lined up. Some are really green looking. I'll try find a pic
Actually they aren't too bad in these photos, I'll have a look for some pics that show the colour difference better

There's one with the original rear window surrounds! And sunroofs, that's gotta be rear too. So wierd how they all look slightly different, and not just the colour either.
The limos are genuine too, somone cut 4 walkys up

I had never noticed that the rear bar sits higher than the side skirts before.
And some dealers fitted Calais nosecones to them.. so, not from factory, but before they were ever bought.

Yes some had Calais parts fitted at the dealer to make them more attractive when they couldn't sell them due to the announcement of the VN Group A. Walky #369 was a special order for the General Manager of HSV at the time who wanted the same C-pilar as the wind tunnel test car, leather interior, Momo Star rims and sunroof. All these options are listed on the HSV paperwork making it a very rare car

The one with the Momo stars looks exactly like the HSV Press car at the time.

I read on their website that each car was made out of 2 cars, listing 4 build numbers.
