    Default 2 questions about my vh

    i am the proud owner of an original group2 vh brock commodore from new. 15 years ago i my stripped her naked, wanting to make her sex on wheels. purchasing every holden part you can think of. from door seals,handles, to wipers, headlights, mirrors and even ashtrays....every part, you name i've got it (all with receipts from when purchased), also an intended an electric window upgrade. i had fitted a leather roof lining with intention of all leather interior (still have 3 hides ready for upolstering), as well as a professionally fitted, flat finish electric sunroof. just prior intended her refit, i had her completely resprayed, since then she always been either garaged or undercover, only a minor blemish on boot and a small amount of hail damage to roof (due to some unfortunate timing), otherwise she is rust free and very straight. she has polished original hdt momo rims on her feet. now happily back garaged. i have a great deal of attachment to her but due to some unfortunate personal circumstances its possible an opportunity to buy her "as is" without finishing my dream of cruising the streets turning some heads along the way is possible to a keen car lover.
    i have 2 questions to ask you: 1. how much to sell now "as is"? 2. how much if i was to finish?
    note: i know what type of person will look after my girl so timewasters will have no chance. ONLY GENUINE ENQUIRIES WILL BE CONSIDERED!

    If you do want someone to look after her, i'd keep the beauty to yourself until you find someone to hand it over to.

    But hey sell her mate

    I can't give you a price but I can tell you that you're not allowed to offer it for sale on Just Commodores until you have made at least 10 posts and can access the For Sale section. Working out how much it's worth however is all good!

    Also double posting is against forum rules, please avoid doing this in future.

    I dont understand why you would want to strip down an 8 year old car that you bought brand new?

    I think that the stripdown, the retrofitted sunroof and the half finished cowskin would deter someone looking for an "original" VH Brock paying top dollar, even more so with hail damage and blemishes.

    On the other side its lineage is pure and something that left the factory branded as a genuine Brock will still hold some value, even if it has been modified.

    Keep your prices in perspective as a purist like myself would be reluctant to spend good coin on a semi pure Brock.
    Untouched versions with all the options can be found for sale online from $12,000

    Just my view anyways...

    Heck, I spent 2500 bucks on parts for my car and the going rate is about that for the whole car. Figure it out. Do some comparisons on different online car sale sites.
