I've got a project bt1 just wondering if it's worth keeping it all original or I was thinking of doing a ls1 conversion? What do you guys think? Cheers

who gives a f*ck if it's a BT1. A cop sat in it, big deal. It's not HDT, heck it's not even a calais (which can be viewed as the "next best thing" by VL standards, and even when they're "OG" it doesn't mean they're that special or valuable)....It's a bloody normal holden, so modify the hell out of it.

Yeh thought of selling it to some guy who will pay stupid amount buy cbf with that to be honest. The manual needs less modification of the gearbox tunnel apparently so going for that.

Its not that special. Ohh and maybe it's got the reinforced k frame. And if its yellow it may be fully sick if your a muzza or a weird c�nt but to us real people it's another Vl that may have potential, so cut the farken thing up!
