    Default VH - VK Look-a-like

    this is my VH that has been converted into a VK, there are a few things that look a bit dodgy but its a good car and goes hard.
    Some people say "what a way to ruin a VH", i say "Fu*k no!"

    Heya.... probably one of the best VK look-alikes i've seen, not bad at all
    But just out of interest, why didnt you just buy a VK in the first place? Theyre going for about the same price as VHs these days...

    Looks alright, it has potential. Degrease that engine and give the rocker cover a paint job, then replace that leaky valve thingy at the back. It won't cost much and will have a great effect on the ooh! ahh! factor.

    Watch out for that spider on tour gear stick.

    I love the VK front ends and the VH/SLE rear ends so i would probably do the same.

    Oh yeah, the VB-VH dash is alot nicer than the VK and the VL's imo

    Looks the business, only way I can tell it's a VH is by the lack of the C pillar window like VK-VL, a very convincing mod otherwise..

    I really prefer the VC/VH - I don't like the plastic on the VK.

    But each to their own.

    Neat car though. Especially the interior.

    i think the hubcaps are the criminal here. are they not camira hubcaps?

    i reckon it almost looks the goods. average joe wouldnt notice.

    i once saw a VC with a VK/L light garnish accross the back.... leaving no where for the numberplate. now thats not cool (it was hanging from the metal bumper by a bit of wire.)
