Well the VC Brockys only came in three colours, white, red and black. All had carmine velour interior, Irmscher rims. A mild worked over 5 litre pumping out 160kW(standard sle had 126kW) either M21 close ratio 4 speed manaul or TH350 3 speed auto. All had a momo sports steering wheel, this has Peter Brocks signature and the build number. Main thing to look for is the build playe, the one with the model codes pressed into them. The model code should be VC8VX69, denotes this is a SLE. Also the ENG. code should be L31, denotes 5 litre.

VC8VL69-225 is a VC SL 225 pack which includes L14, M40. L14 is a 202 3.3L high compression 6 cylinder. M40 is trimatic 3 speed automatic transmission.
Its not that special, but you, as the owner might think differently. So it can be special for you.
Also of note is 69 in the build plate, That denotes sedan body ;)
I hope that helps mate
