Goodaye, I have a mate in the business that loves converting sedans/station wags to utes! Ive seen is work and it is very credible.... and this got me thinking, why not do something different and own a vl ute? if anyone has any pictures or info, could you please offer it as i am serious and would love to own something different. Critisism is welcome :-)

heh.. I thought about how that would look once... either really cool or butt ugly the tail lights would really suit it though Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

platinum the lights would look sweet. i saw a vh turned ute in a commodore crazy or commo fever mag , geez it looked ****e

yeah a vh ute would look funny but then again, i cant justify a vl ute! my inspiration is a 180 sx with 300 hp out of a 4 cyl turbo. it looks mint! i wish i could post the pic but its on my hard drive :-/ ive been trying to design the ute with some design programs but nothing really brings it to life. one guy sent me a pic of an artists impression of the ute... it has a walkinshaw kit on (obviously no spolier or nething) and had the front looking mint with skirts. I wish i didnt format :cry: :cry:

There is a vl ute going around, its in a book called modifiying your commodore, looks bloody terrible!

Many years ago in one of the commodore mags was a small article on a VL Wagon that was converted into a four door Ute somewhere in NZ.

they do that quite often with vn/p wagons. theres a sydney based (i think) shop that converts almost anything

The holden museum in Echuca has a convertable Vl on show, I thought it looked preety sweet and its something different to....

awww dam underprivilaged WA not getting any good car stuff :-(

hey we in WA have the v8vn 4WD with a lift kit Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

ive seen a VL ute in Swan Hill, it was blue, with 17" 5 spoke wheels, it was sweet, but the tail lights were the wagon ones, and it made it look stoopid. thats my 2 cents. cambee

I saw a vl ute in dandenong.. it looked ****en good! It was Red I think .. it was a long time ago tho.. Worst thing ive seen tho was a VL Drop top convertible.. *shudder*

Here in W.A we also have two Vl Calais Wagons converted to a nissan patrol base with lift kit huge 4wd tyres etc (Basicaly both monster trucks made from vl calais) I never saw em with my own eyes but a mate of mine a couple of years ago was 4wdriving up at lano and filmed these 2 beasts running through the dunes! I musta watched the footage 1000 times! unreal...

That would look pretty sweet..... extend the front doors, make it a 2 door... Hmmmmm My mind is ticking over..... should be able to pick up a rolling/rusty body for $50.... now wheres the plasma cutter?

<---- my brother was considering making one.. my avatar is a small version of one of the ideas

there is a vl ute getting around my town, looks ****ed

yea ive seen a few VL UTEs they look ****.

There is a VK Ute going round in Perth, a guy from Just Commodore Spares own's it. I can't remember the plates...... It looked ok..

When I was living in Mandurah, I used to see that Blue 4WD VN V8 wagon a bit, it's supercharged too! And just before I left WA, in the carpark of Bunnings Mandurah, was a 4WD VL Calais wagon, from memory that was a V8 too! Very cool, had massive ammounts of sheetmetal removed to accomodate the tyres. cheerz morepsi

saw this, he reckons that it is an actual car. can anyone confirm or deny this?? what you guys and gals think of it anyway?? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
