Hi sitting here with nothing to do so i guess its a good time to start a thread about my wagon
Ok my grandpa bought this 86 vl berlina new and drove it around for a while then put it in the shed and only bought it out on special days
Then about a year and a half ago he gave it to my mum to drive everyday.
Mum drove it to work everyday untill recently she got a bmw and the old man gave me the vl.
So anyway with a bit of a clean and some blinds it look like this
I then added some chasers and turbo hubcaps that i repainted
Also got rid of the pin stripe on the body , painted the blinds in silverstate
and put some superlow kings in the back and gave it a polish and it looked like this
Heres the bay pics - note it wont be like this for long ,new turbo motor coming soon thanks to ylwjet
also added some bonnet struts and ice leads since these pics
So on the to do list
put bigger fuel pump on
better brakes and disc brake rear diff
auto cooler
turbo motor
highflow t3
no holes cooler kit
want to keep this thing fairly stanard as its my daily
anyways
cheers bigears

beautiful example of a wagon, u've really complimented the body colour with the hubbies, looks really classy.
...i just can't say enough good things about how it looks, i think i'm in love. jam a turbo into the engine bay! treat em mean, keep em keen.
