Vl's been in the build for over 3 years, its got a 18 thous dollar 383 stroker motor going into it, big brakes, stage 3 trans, 9inch diff etc all the best strong gear. Its taken so long due to my mechanic in Adelaide being so busy and me lacking in the cash flow at times lol. the vl came with a 308 in it which i rebuilt with a mate 3 years ago its a nice warmed over 5 litre but it still didnt go like i wanted it to so pulled the motor back out a 1000ks later and now just sitting in the mechanics workshop waiting for a doner car. Now ive gone all out on the drive train this time round.
The first 2 pics are after the roof, front, bonnet and engine bay were repainted a couple of weeks ago. Now its waiting for the motor and box to go into it. Then all the rest of the expensive goodies. The bottom pic is when i first got the car with the 308 still i it.
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
