    Default VK with ducktail?

    I have an old VL and a VK commodore.

    I don't like the look of the VL commodore front ends. But I do like the ducktail at the rear.

    Can I remove the boot lid, and both rear quarter pannels and stick them on my VK without any complications?

    If you have to ask it's probably a job best left to a professional. Probably easier to put a VK front clip on a VL than VL rear on a VK.

    I can't do that, the entire front end is smashed to bits.

    everything infront of the radiator and front stuts might as well be powder.

    Still probably an easier job.

    not only easier, but better dash and engine are both a plus, no carby or lead replacement crap with the VL
    Going where no late model stato/caprice has gone before.... GAME ON!!

    nah man! unpicking two 1/4 panels, a rear panel, rear window scuttle, boot braces and most of the floor and chassis rails, then unpicking them off another car, then welding them back onto the car is MUCH easier than undoing a few bolts

    you silly people.
