Hey all thought I would finally put up some pics of my VL and a little info as well. I have had this VL in the family since new and a couple of years ago I bought it of my grandfather for $1000. So after having it for about a year I decided to play around and do something with it, and I'm going to keep it as original as possible. It was just a plain 87 Executive with Grandpa spec. Here's whats done so far: Pacemaker extractors, 2.5 inch all the way through Turbo Calipers and larger discs Repostioned the power steering reservoir Bonnet Struts Cold air intake XF throttle body Ripped out the Exeuctive Interior Put in a full Berlina Interior including orignal tape deck CD player and GPS in glove box Polished Calais wheels Remote Central Locking and Alarm Formula Headrest Tinted Windows and ventians all round Chrome door handles All new door moulds and bumpers (not on car) Future plans: Full respray Lowered Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
