I found some papers with numbers and stuff on it I have a original Calais Turbo Tags and body numbers match the papers i found Are they purchase papers or something? There where 2 under the carpet identical as im about to change the interior And also about to sandblast my car to spray it (Not Going orig colour) What you guys think? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

It's just the order form for the car basically, that they use to track the car down the production line. There is lots of information about these already, do a search. http://www.calaisturbo.com.au/showthread.php?t=20572

Yeah it's just the broadcast sheet that tells you all bout the car from factory, what options it had etc. Unlike a fair few of them, mine included, yours is in very good condition. Nothing special, but good to have if you like to know a bit about the car.

I'd keep your car original, stick to the sheet, colour wise, keep the interior same. Why not spend your skrillas on your donk and drive line?

damn I wish I could get as excited as you if I found some weird **** like this lol

Agree 100% IMO Changing the colour and interior makes them tacky, devalues them, and... cmon man, its an original calais turbo. If you want to molest one, get an N/A Exec, and convert that

thats pretty cool seeing a good copy of a vl broadcast sheet, and **** theres a lot of boxes on there. i guess im to use to seeing the current ones tho. dose anyone kno what model's were exported besides new zealand if any ?

yeah i found one in my series 200 when i wrecked it. suprising to know that they had a fair few different things from factory. I think they were the firts commodores to come factory with 2pac.

If you want to molest one, get an N/A Exec, and convert that **** spending big money on an n/a exec and converting it to calais turbo and going all out just to be left with a bitsa.. if you've got the money then build it from a genuine car. Better every time plus it's not like they are rare or even that uncommon. If i had the spare cash I'd build a 10 second show car from a genuine LE. Just to know it started as an LE.

My old mans vl calais had 1, but on top of were it says stock order it said " PAINT EVALUATION VECHICLE Fit super light gold bumpers and body side mouldings" (it was hand written) and believe it or not hes bumpers are a slight gold colour

The last Commodores to come with 2pac were the VRs, he was killed shortly after.

i read up on it and i found a site that had all the specs and they said they came out with factory 2k paint as a test for the later models

here's the production sheet from my first Calais (N/A).

the reason i found it is becoz i sold my interior and i had to rip the carpet out. and i dont wanna do a mock calais than its worth absolutely nufn. i am also spending money on my engine. i would like to do it ORIG colour and so on BUT id rather build what iv always wanted this time. Kandy Apple Red Quick Engine with a 700r or something And im pretty sure i wanna go manual.

do all vl's have this?

build it how you want it! not many cars on carsales with actualy kandy paint, just lots of talk
