hsvtj's VK Wagon

[hsvtj]

hey guys, i lost my post when all the stuff happened with the servers and that a while ago, so i decided to put some more pics up of my wagon.

its a VK Berlina wagon, EFI 202 (for now). its a custom metallic green with full calais exterior trim, green berlina interior.

im in the process of building a custom boot setup for the sub and speakers. and a DVD setup is on the way.

im looking for some decent rims for it (once the rego is paid up again lol) and the 202 will be replaced by another 202, but much hotter, at least for now. once i have finished uni in a year ill have some decent money to spend on a stroker 355.

anyways, its a great looking daily driver for now.

Very Nice,
how close to looking like a Calais do you want to go?

Rarespares still has the Calais badges for side fender and bonet,
other details could be to paint the 3 slat grill to match the paintowrk (VK executives had grey grills, Calais was matched to body)
Also Calais had body coloured inserts fitted into the surface of the door handles.

here is my original calais, almost the same colour....

see if you can get a set of the original Calais rims, there must be some out there some where?

cheers

thanks steve,

yeah ive thought about a few things like that, especially painting the grille. im not really worried about making it look like a calais, i just like the whole 'two tone' thing. im actually looking at a Director style kit to go round the bottom, if i did that, id put the different grille in, and paint it the same colour too. as for rims, i want some big shiny 18"s lol
yours looks good mate, thats the original colour mine was, now its a bit of a mix of greens, a bit lighter and more metallic.

This car is mint, ive seen it several times running around, maybe you'll come up for a krispy meet one time and i can actually get a close look at it.

hey all its been a long long time since ive updated,

bought some new wheels yesterday for the wags, looking good too.

nothing too crazy, but a lot better than the old ones, just sets it off really nice


heres some phone pics.. gunna give her a good wash and polish today, so better pics are in order.








also got some VS speaker pods, and a new pioneer head unit on the way, will be getting a new sub too, and ill start decking out the custom boot install, get it all happening. might even hassle the guy across the road at work for some tint on the windows. After that im planning to rip out the EFI, which is causing issues (suprise suprise) and replace it with something else so a turbo or S/C can be bolted on....
