WHY30T is the best V8 VL Calais going around in my opinion.... those deeeeep-dish FR19's - F**CK!!! looks off its tits.
Also, the old SHWTME (I think? NSW plates) blue/silver VL Calais was in SC mag a few years back, had the GM 6/71 blower and champagne VX R8's on it.

I think that one was USHWME
It's currently getting a pretty major rebuild.
One of my favourite VLs...

GA5DUP, TUFGM8 & HVATOS (i would have prefered it as a turbo, but it still looks tuff as) are the best carby VLs.

Heres one
This cars always been ahead of its time, that pic was from summernats about 4 - 5 years ago, he could bring that exact same car out today and it would be better than most!
It looked mint on the 20" Priders, SO much better as an 8 - GAME OVER
