- VH Adayer Sportif
Hi people...
I've had my fair share of car projects throughout the years but recently restoration temptation struck again when I came across a rare car...
I sited a vehicle wrapped up in a blue weather proof tarp in a back yard of a business in the northern part of Melbourne - the shape of this wrapped up vehicle looked to be 80ties commodore...
Asking a few questions "like you do" the owner tells me its a 2 door VH black commodore - "WTF" I checked it out, took a few pictures and kept it under my hat only telling a few friends.
When i got home i researched this 2 door commodore to find out its a ADAYER SPORTIF... super rare and a bit ugly, well fairly ugly but i like the rare part...
One year later and loads of BS with the few i told one friend said lets have a crack at it... So we bought it and now we're thinking what we are going to do ?
My question is do we restore it back to;
The ugly duckling "ADAYER SPORTIF"
OR
VH it by changing the bonnet, front guards, grille, lights and indicators (possibly HDT or SS)
I would like to hear what you people think would be good for this project... look forward to your feedback
cheers
regards
Pete
