    Default buying a vh

    I'm going to look at a VH sedan tomorrow for my brother.
    I'm not to familiar with the VH and i was just wondering what things could be wrong that i would need to check for. I know the usual stuff to check for when buying second hand but was wondering if there is anything specific to the VH model.
    Its 202 auto on gas.

    Mate Rust is your worst enemy. Look under windsreen rubbers, bottom of the wheel well in the boot, lower front gaurds, lower doors, drivers floor and sills.

    Check for oil leaks. If on gas check the date on the cylinder.

    Parts don't get much cheaper for parts new or 2nd hand.

    Good VH bodies are getting harder to find.

    Cheers Pete

    body was good. gas was out of date. bit of dry oil under the hood. wiring needs attention to keep the cops away. interior was neat. recon trans. air con still worked. $500 with reg
