    Based on WA prices, its about right. You could get the same condition car for half the price in Vic tho!

    Personally, its a VL with a woodgrain steering wheel, its not worth anything to me!

    Apart from that being extremely hard to read because you can't spell, you sure you want to blow the large amount of money to put that into a VL that wasn't an original turbo or an original Calais Turbo?

    Mockups don't hold their value, and VL's are rubbish.

    $1000.

    Pick a model that's worth doing up. VL's aren't.

    very helpful boys

    everyone has there opinions and if you personally dont have anything useful to help with the OP question then why waste jcs bandwidth


    just look for rust, rear window, front window and under the boot rubber
    if there all gone then your looking at $1000ish
    if there is no rust and the rest of the car is imaculate then you could be looking towards the $3000 mark

    Fair point. Just look out for the cancer - like VL Berlina said, plenty of places for it to grow.

    I don't dislike VL's, just think they are getting too long in the tooth to modify unless they are absolutely spot on to start with. And later models are still very cheap, safer and easier to modify.

    I think around the 1500 mark. But by reading your posts it sounds like you already have your heart set on it anyway?
