I wouldn't think the whole car has been hit with paintwork, as no-one bother's putting back all the badge's after a respray as they're so hard to get straight without the factory template, yet this one has the badges on the front quarter's and bootlid dead straight, indicating a factory ummolested paintjob.

to me the car looks like its had a full respray its to bright doesnt look like alpine white but i could be wrong , an bro in melb they put the badges back not here in sydney as people think if you got badges or sl your car is crap lol.

anyone who does a half decent respray will put the badges back on, problem is here in sydney most vl owners do half jobs on everything and hence, no badges

Not really. You need to remember, if someone asks a premium price on a car for its "originality", then yes, this is a question i would ask. But, if the price was much less, then there are more things one can overlook.

lol exactly
(imagine though that these investor dudes one day run out of GTHO's to buy, and then stumble across the interest generated on this site for BT1's and like what they see....and we start seeing $100k plus BT1's, how funny would that be)

no books/papers etc
it was on before for $8500 and I've spoken to the guy
he should have changed his ad to reflect the fact of no papers
that yellow one in country vict, i can't remember but it's been for sale for months now, it can't be any good. young guy seems to own it too
