My poor vc can anyone help me

[curry]

hey everyone i got this vc that i was goin to restore and it was out on my dads property anyway to cut a long story short it has been burnt to the ground. i am wondering if there is anyway possible that it is still able to be repaired cause there was barely any rust in it and all the panels where dead straight not one dent it appsolutly brang me to tears when i recieved the call saying it was gone thanx

I would say most likely not
For it to burn to the ground it would be extensive, panels would of warped, all gaskets rubbers etc melted. And when a car gets burnt they generally rust pretty quick.

But you never know it may not be as bad as you have been told

Good luck either way.

Also, with a fire, there is a very intense heat cycle which weakens the steal.

id say she'd be f***ed, only good for minor parts!!

i have a vc sle with no motor i am trying to get rid off if ur interested, it is firethorn red with the same interier as the brocky!, lsd diff, may come with duel bathurst exhaust for 308 (comes out behind rear wheels) if the price is right!
If u where to pick up a vc body shell up that is completely straight and needs all the pannels, interier etc,,
mine would only be great for parts, as it has slight twist in the rear end (15mm),, itz fixable,, but not 4 me!
all pannels are straight exept the "twist", front drivers pannel (slight dent), front passanger door (rust down bottom), and roof (straight but may have rust under paint) i think it had been side swiped in the rear passanger pannel and the whole pannel has been replaced, that is probebroly the reason for the rust under the paint and the twist in the rear!!

make me a decent offer if you are interested, as it is a genuine sle and has the red "brocky" interier,
the car waz going to be a majour restoration until the diagnosis of its twist!!

it needs 2 go asap,
im currently trying to set up a pay-pal account on ebay 2 say good buy 2 it!

cheers mate,

im located in melbourne victoria.

Sorry about your car man, that's harsh. I reckon I'd break down in tears if my vc burnt down.
