Hey all, just picked up this interesting VH SL 5.0L, factory red, factory 5.0L.
I thought only Govt dept's could order VH SL in a 5.0L V8?

yeah... well, depends on who you know
I got myself a 5.0 M21manual(!) VH SL wagon built while I was at GMH as my co car


ps.. how do you know its not a govt car build (SAPol, VicPol, RTA, Dept of parks etc etc?)
only the Holden Traffic invoice delivery details can confirm that

Story goes it was ordered by NSW Police detectives dept but the order was cancelled and it was sold through a Holden dealer. The original owner fitted the SLE interior, bumper and taillights.

As Smitty said almost anything was possible if you knew the right people.......even if you didn't some holden dealership were more than happy to make added options happen for right amount of coin
