the car im looking at buying

[eaton v8]

ok i have found a vl for sale i am looking at this week end i need to find out what i would be worth. it has a brand new fuel injected 355 stroker the blok is out of a vs the gear box is a t56 6 speed with a rip shift that has been upgraded by malwood and a mini spool 9inch with 4.11 gears. it has hsv interia and a vl group a body kit comes with it but is not on it it is only standed paint and wheels sooooo how much do you think and ill tell you how much he wants

[Zuicider]

2 grand? ????

[Zuicider]

sorry two cartons of vb

[eaton v8]

i can get it for 5 grand

[Cobez]

I'd say crap personally for $5k because i wouldn't pay squat for a VL, but let's say i liked them, $5k is not too bad for a 5.7 stroke 304 with trans and diff work provided the car is clean and straight and the diff, trans and engine all work fantastic.

[wildss]

reg/rw? if yes jump on it before someone else does

[eaton v8]

no has not been driven for a while due to getting new engine gearbox and diff but i can get mod plate and rwc the car is strait and clean apprently

[minux]

It is worth as much as you are willing to pay, simple as that. Personally I hate VL's, so I would not pay anything more than $100 for it.

[eaton v8]

ok im with you on the hate of vl except for calais version but it has the potential to fly considering i could put a set of thicker head gaskits on it transplant the eaton blower to it and wella blowen 5.7 with a six speed and 9 inch but ok vl probably not the best loooking but you should see the utes body its screwed hence the delima

Well there is no dilemma, if you are happy to pay that price, buy it. You could pick up a decent Vr/VS SS for that price though. Maybe even a nice VN Calais etc.

[Zuicider]

a nice one maybe, but not with the vl's internals, could get a slightly banged up y series senator sig from pickles for 5 grand too

[eaton v8]

ill ring him tommoro and see what is done to the internals of the engine. on the other hand i could swap the drive train over to the ute and the perfect sleeper that every one laughs at and sell the vl i dont know im in two minds. i could get it and part it out id make money on it

Read Airstrikes sig... his comments are words of wisdom.

[eaton v8]

just had a funny thought i know its wrong but how ****ed would you be if you own a new hsv ute and got hosed by a vl i dont know whitch is worse a dinged up vr builders ute or a dirty old vl at the drags . but airstrike is right

Have you got a link to this Auction? A banged up Y Series is not listed on Pickles.

bout as fun as a stock ba xt falcon chopping a vn ss.

its worth what you want to pay for it, i agree with minux for once. pay what you want for it, it takes a special person to love a vl

decent vr/vs ss for 5k? youre dreaming again minux

[minux]

decent vr/vs ss for 5k? youre dreaming again minux

Whatever you say.

I guess I am only seeing things when I see these cars go this cheap.

[wildss]

can you show me proof cos i havent seen a vr/s ss go that cheap, not a clean one anyway

[Wagon_Wheel]

But it, then sell me the motor and gearbox for 2k, then you can keep the VL and diff, thats gotta be a bargain

Personally i hate VL's, but sounds like a wicked combination, if your keen, maybe buy it and swap the goodies into a better body

[eaton v8]

the engine has a harrop crank stock rods new pistons a crain cam to suit the bananas working range the heads have had a mild port and polish done on them and its 10:1 compression but only 2 bolt mains

[Ripcell]

does it come with receipts and ****?
