thanks i wanted a 'holden' sticker for the front but wasnt allowed to, then i suggested 'commnwhore' but that sounded meh, not nice and cos im a nice girl went for the plain jane for what you see, its also kinda different i can honestly say i have never seen a car with just 'commodore'(pardon the pun)on the windscreen, im the second owner i forgot to put down as well. 99.9% has been done by partner/me il never get rid of her the other half will have to sell one of his torries before il get rid of it.

That's cool, even better that your the 2nd owner i was after a commodore sticker but eneded up with holden heheh! if you do decided to repsray her and do the work yourself or your partner on the paint, just becareful casue its probley lead based paint, so youll need a mask

Id like to see the engine pics if u can get some up painting the engine is always fun if its something that needs to be done + if u want get some extractors to go with the 2.5 exhasut, its better fuel eco

[red_vb]

thanks Goon... its dirty as buggery, yeah still has everything a/c, power steering, all the pollution stuff still in there, including all the gas crap. i would like to tidy up the engine bay,it up needs a wash. also the a/c had most of the original gas (the bad one) in it til the mister changed the engine and let it out lol there's my bit of global warming. will keep you posted if anything changes. hope the vl's going along good il have to check it out.
