hey danny. get badges for sure. just the big rounded holden + lion and the berlina. also the lion on the front and the electronic injection badges. i agree on loosing the commodore badge. clean that garnish up with no badge it will look mint. apart from that v nice man. its been a while since i have checked in for a look.

jeez that nosecone badge is shocking! i am undecided whether i will do more badges. if i am classed as an advertiser f it i'm not making enough. anyways g/l with the radiator. i would have thought almost any at the wreckers yard would do? should be a dime a dozen.

Wow.. long time since i updated. Lost interest in the vl for awhile but meh. Got bored today and since I'm only a few months away from getting my license back i thought i should start getting it back together and tidying it up and saving for a built auto. Aim is to have it tuned and running by late feb or early march.

nice man!! u might have issues with that turbo i know of a few people who have used them. the smaller front housing causes them to spike pretty badly, u might need to put a .7 front on it. see how u go but

Wow, over a year since an update.. Had no time in 2011 due to work and family commitments so finally got a chance to wash it and take a couple photos the other day. The real work starts at the end of feb and see how things go Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
