hey guys, im 16, and i own 2 vls, both n/a's because of the new laws , iv been playing around with my white vl over the holidays and my parents said its to much of an a orignal car to destroy, so im restoring my other one which was originaly my sisters old vl which we were guna restore for her, my plan is f0r n0w to respray it similar to the xr5 orange (wanted that type colour for the last 3 years ) then guna drop a nice rb30 into it non turbo tho, and im guna go all out on interior, and a nice set of vy gts , ill keep you all posted on my progress. this is how it sits atm, i jst pushed it into my dads panel shop 2nite .

heyy boys, thanks for the comments, lo0ks like u guys r interesting in the white vl lol she really needs a go0d cut and polish, its a 88 limited edition, the only difference i can tell between the other vl is that its got berlina tail lights, limited edition stickers, and blue interior, apart from those i they not much different, the interior in the white vl is in very go0d nick as the guy that use to own it never had neone else in the car and allways had seat covers on em, so the back seats r still firm, ill get the digital camera out so0n for some better pics, but heres a few pics for n0w ther not the best pics but ill get some decent ones so0n, as for the other vl im guna head d0wn to dads panel shop n start stripping the rest of it, i want to hopfully start pulling out the motor woooo cant wait lol Quote: Originally Posted by SIroller so we have a burgundy over asteroid berlina looks like a series 1 with grey interior? looks nice man, and with a father who has a body shop you are well on the way. i look forward to hearing about your progress. whats this white vl and what have you been doing with it? im not sure if its a series one, on the tag its says its a 1987 so wht ever that one is lol, with the white vl havnt really done much jst install n set um my stereo, installed a tacho, n pulled half the dash apart to fix a few minor things, and iv been playing wif the engine trying to get runing like a clock which i had alot of funy with, oh and the vy ss and thats about it Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
