    Default my VC commodore

    Hey... over the holidays i picked up this Vc for my first car she is in pretty good nic. when i brought it the bloke selling it wanted $3000 for it and i was like no and took the walk. about a week later i went back and made the offer of $1500 once againg and he couldnt say no so i think i got a bargin but im happy anyway. it is a VC commodore with a 253 V8, Brock body kit, simmons rims, 4 barrel carby, boss kit and steering wheel and is lowwer with just low springs and is a pretty tidy car.

    I have a couple of plans 4 this car but not to many to start with but to start just a new paint job red once again and polish the rims and maybee a vk group A bonnet scoop and just the stuff to get it road worthy like tighten all the loose screws.

    But i was still deciding wheather or not to put a rear spoiler on it does ant 1 have an oppion it would be great. im just not sure so yeah.

    Well tell me what you think hear is some pics...

    nice looking vc, tha body kit looks alittle out of place though but once its painted should look the part, i reckon u need the clear headlights aswel. i would leave it without the spoiler but dats my opinion. overall looks like a good find man.

    cheers, nick

    nice car mate good score if it was mine i would take the vk kit off and put the vc chrome bumpers back on but it is your car not mine if you like the kit thought i would look at getting vk headlights and guards and bonnet to make it look genuine but as before its your car and you do what you like its a good first car though and is in better nick then mine atm keep up the good work

    like all wheels they come in different offsets and stud patterns.
    you probably have simmons with H series stud pattern.. you could even have ford ones?
