Just announcing i picked up a bargain... For $500 including tow i got a wrecked vl with an ex bt1 rb30et long motor in it... This is the foundation for my build before motorvation.. it has a spun bearing.... Paper thin to be precise (ey dan :P ) Unfortunately, the shell it was in wasnt a vlt But i will have some spares left over if anyone is interested in panels etc... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

How faded is it? the problem with ours is that the paint has cracked and unless its polished everyweek surface rust appears?

The bumper is complete wilko... did u need the metal frame as well?? Id like to sell it as a complete item altogther say $75... Note a frame is worth $50, Each side piece about $25 and centre peice a bit more (brand new prices) The boot lid id have to have another good look at it... there is some surface rust that i might have to treat first so it will prime itself and be good to use its faded enough i guess??? Paint isnt cracked, no crows feet etc
