Anyone who knows me-knows i look after my toys and i have no expense when it comes to my own cars. i dont want to sell it unless i get the above prices. reason for sale- maybe buy an other property or rental investment- its not every day u get to make a dollar on toys-i have had my fun with it an has not been driven in 2 and a half years since my best mates wedding. Please enjoy the above-there is also a heap of stuff that are new but it will take forever to mention. p.s i am not broke or in need of the money- i could use the money for other investment issues so please no unreasonable offer's. Thankyou. Nick Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

It's the kind of car I would want, but not sure how many buyers there are for modified ones like yours. But I think it will sell at a good price once the right buyer comes along

thankyou- i knew what i wanted to do with it since the first day i bought it-. theres more with this car-everything is new-clutch cable,washer jets,throttle cable etc etc- this suits a person who wanted or wants a modified walkinshaw.

No doubt, alot of money and work has gone into this car, but with no log books and the extensive modifications, you will need to find someone that is interested in it. Most people want originality with walkys now. Good luck!

yes we want some pics-sounds tough the mods you have done.At least you had the hindsight to take the original engine/box out and put in a corner.If i could i would do the same with my Walky but put the running gear out of a GTSR-then it would look tough and go as well lol.

You might want to consider putting the factory running gear back in and seeing the VN Group A running gear separately Someone correct me if I�m wrong but VN Group A 383 stroker with ZF 6sp would be worth $10k+? Provided you have the VN Group A TTBs to go with it

I agree, change it back to standard... engine, gearbox, brakes etc... rims don't matter that much... Sell the vn gear separate... Quote: Originally Posted by NZ EVLHSV Now that changes everything!
