my VC Project

[phayZd]

Gday guys

Just joined up n loved some of the fine old cars getting around.
so thought i would add mine here n keep it as a bit of a diary in wats goin on with mine

Picked up an 81 VC commodore from an older guy for $600, nice and cheap!!
has NO rust what so ever which i was well pleased about, so far im just bringing upto a roadworthy level so i an drive it properly, it has had the waterpump replaced, all brakes and fanbelt.
came with factory rims so i just picked up a nice pair of 15"s n put em on
bit of paint cracking on the bonnet which the old man is stripping/repainting for me.

have spent about $400 on parts (including new rims & tyres)

This is going to be a bit of a lony term project, planning on going through the whole interior and exterior and making it something special to keep!
here it is as it stand right now!
ill also get some more pics of the car tomorrow!!
