im saving the wrx roof scope for later on,, dont wana make it look like a wrx too much...either that or VE GTS body kit would really set it off , with bf GT side indicators .

As I've said before on Walkinshaw.net.... Peter Brock and Walkinshaw don't go together. The Walkinshaw is the result of Brocks split with Holden. Brocky even refused to drive it when Wheels did a test/story on Group A's... said he would never drive it. So how is your car going to be a good tribute to him???

dude... what you are describing will look disgusting and will not be a tribute to anyone... if you wanna do a brock tribute wagon: 1; get a calais wagon. 2; Put an "LE" or "SPORT" kit on it 3; paint it red 4; get a full signature series badging kit 5; install a scheel interior 6; get some 16" HDT aero wheels for it That would be a true brock "tribute" wagon kos i believe there was only one genuine red signature wagon ever built. and most importantly man, with the exception of wheels or driveline components... USE ONLY VL PARTS! mongrel bodykits = gay Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Same as those freaks that have HSV stickers on VB-VK models

Subtle bodykits is the way to go. Most tribute cars I see have some sort of airbrushing on them, I reckon it would look cool if you covered up the rear side windows and got a nice brocky mural airbrushed on each side. Each to their own though...

I agree i reckon they should have gone into mass production... one day (when i have the money) i would like to do a showcar quality mock-up of one of these in pearl blue with grey leather covered coulson seats and corvette stingray wheels (the ones that inspired brock to make the aeros, xcept they come in 17")...... yum yum. ps. O9WNS sorry for hijacking your thread mate Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
