    Default SL/ENUT's SL/E collection, well just about anyway!

    Howdy all. I don't know if i'm lucky or just plain greedy! but have 2 classic Holden SL/E Commodores.
    First off, my VB SL/E 308 pack, which is a rare car.
    Model: 1979 VB SL/E 308 pack
    Motor: red 308 5 litre
    Gearbox: M21 Close ratio aussie 4 speed manual, factory fitted
    Colour: Sandlewood Beige Metallic
    Interior Trim Colour: Buckskin
    Speedo: close to hitting 150000ks.
    I have had it for 6 years so far. The headlight washers/wipers still work!

    And second is a VC SL/E 330 pack Shadow Tone
    Model: 1980 VC SL/E 330 pack
    Motor: blue 202
    Gearbox: 3 speed Tramatic
    Colour: Magnum Silver over Aztec Silver, might be factory, might be not
    Interior Trim Colour: Carmine(red) hate it
    Speedo: says 33000+ but it doesn't work.
    Now some pics.









    That will do for pics.
    The gold machine, the future is to restore it to close as i can.
    The 2T0NE beast, something that i'll keep a secret.
    Cheers Damien"SL/ENUT" Smith, The SL/E Fanatic!
    A lucky owner of 2 SL/E Commodores, a rare VB SL/E and a 2 tone VC SL/E. Just need a VH SL/E and have the set!

    Very nice collection Damien, it seems we have a lot in common as I also have a rare VB, a 310 pack which I will be restoring to factory specs beginning early next year and I also have a twotone VC 4.2l SLE which is a genuine 2 owner vehicle I use a a weekend ride. Great choice in cars and best of luck with your restoration.

    Both of your cars are awesome.. the interior of the VB looks perfect!
    Look after them!
    I was looking through some old threads, what ever happened to that Opel Senator you almost got your hands on?

    Thanks mate, yes i will still look after them, although the VB has more TLC than the VC!.
    The Opel Senator, well the owner wanted way to much money. It would of cost a lot to restore anyway. AFAIK it still for sale, and it has gone up in price!.

    They aren't mine to sell, those are my old mans Irmscher rims. Got them for $200 with tyres, a damn steal!. Even if they were mine still wouldn't sell them.

    Mate my eyes are open for a decent looking VH SL/E, trying to get one with blue velour interior, Shadow Tone would be nice and 253 motor. It would be the added bonus if i find one with a 5 litre donk. I nearly got a VH SL/E, Venition(spelling?) Red, tan velour interior and 253 donk, the owner stuffed me around.

    Hope it isn't rough, these SL/Es are the rare ones to get these days. Even if the 4 speed manual is factory, not many of those built factory!
