AJ's 202 VH

[AJ-VL-23]

Hi guys, i bought this VH about 3 months ago, it had no rego and didn't run, 202, 3spd traumatic, and aircon, needed new carpet new seats needed EVERY ENGINE BAY WIRE REPLACED (many headaches) new headlining, new dash,

basically it was really screwed,

bought it as a way to get home (stuck up north at the moment) plus it was free (if i helped out the local mechanic for a bit and did all the work on it myself)

so far i have replaced said broken parts, i am waiting on the alarm new drivers seatbelt, rear shocks, coil leads points condenser dizzy cap and plugs,

apart from replacing and wiring things, i picked up clear front indicators, did a vk tailight and mirror conversion, put in a vc stage 2 dash, wired up a new aerial (will get oem one in perth) wired up a spotlight, added 2 clarion 2 ways (untill i reach perth for new ones) 2 pioneer 6x9"s and an amp wiring kit (while the carpet was out) i put sl/e arm rests and those shiny window winders and door handle surrounds, also added in central locking and got new door locks and ignition barrel,

car has a performance intake and a 350 holley carb, extractors, all the pollution stuff removed except for the pcv system and charcol canister, will get some light porting done in perth and am removing the rear muffler and adding a dump style tip,

future mods include actually having an amp for the wiring kit upgrading the front coaxials with splits and adding tweaters and crossover boxes to the rear putting in a new headunit (shitty tape deck atm) respray it, take the engine out and paint it, bonnet bulge, front and rear skirts, new grille, and all that, maybe a cam?

neways hope you enjoy the pics or whatever will keep you updated with stuff as i go looking to have it running an registered in the next 2 weeks so i can go home for christmas

Got 3 new tires today and put 2 on the 16's looking for a 16" stock rim for a spare i'm sure there's one around the workshop somewhere, also got the washer bottle and put all that together one of my jet's is blocked though will sort that out later, gonna take the radiator out and pressure spray with fuel and that all the mud out so she doesn't overheat on the way to perth, also got my brake pads, things are moving along, still waiting on more bits but everyday looks closer to finished, yay i get to go home for chrissy :P

what a old beast !!

[AJ-VL-23]

haha, yeah true,

things didn't go exactly to plan so the car is still up north whilst i'm in perth, looking to get up there soon to grab it as my daily astra went bung, so need another car whilst the vl is still off the road

wat colour interior?

[AJ-VL-23]

Verrrry long time between posts, i scrapped the astra, camry, and the maxima, sold the vl, i'm left with the vh and i bought a sierra, last time i saw the vh i got her started and took her for a spin in the dirt, was very satisfying took almost a year to get it to that point, it's been almost a year since then too, but i'm going back up to see her as soon as my course finishes and i save up for fuel for the trip, hoping to finish it up and register it and bring her home as a cruiser so i can put the 4by aside for the weekends,

apart from study and wheeling, the vh is all i think about these days and i can't wait to see it again and take it for another drive
