    Default 1984 Vh-SLE

    Hi guys new to this forum so i thought i would post some pics up of my 84 VH SLE. Has a warmed up 308, crane 286 cam, extractors, modified quaddy, edelbrock performer manifold,yella terra roller rockers,twin thermo fans,slightly ported and polished heads, rebuilt trimatic with shift kit and 2500 stall converter, 3 inch mandrel bent exhaust amongst a few other things and i just had a BW 3.45 LSD put in it.

    I am in the process of cleaning up my engine bay by removing any unnecessary stuff eg, aircon etc

    This is a weekend car and a ongoing project am toying with the idea of stroking it to a 355. Hope you all like

    Some more pictures, if you can see it in the picture i had the center console re trimmed in blue velour turned out pretty good i think (P.S if you are wondering why there is a paper in the car it was for my car insurance, they wanted proof that the photos were current lol)

    Thanks mate seats are original and in perfect condition as is the roof lining the only thing i have done is put new carpet in and retrimmed the center console in velour. I have some other pictures i want to post but it wont let me do it, once you exceed your down loads is that it? or can they be reset any suggestions would be much appreciated

    Thanks

    im a fan of the vh sle's and youve got a very nice example of one. i used to have an slx which i did up as an sle-lookalike, but it was a 6 . good luck with it.
