    Default VP no 2

    Hi All,

    I was in need of a cheap daily whilst the BT1's off the road and found this little gem...

    Its a 1992 VP Exec - Solid engine with new alt. Pacemaker headers and a 2.5 inch.

    Just over 220K and was originally a Council fleet car (log books still in glove box).

    Paint and panel is a little rough but for $200 with rego till June 10 I cannot complain one little bit. Has minor surface rust around bottom of rear window thats all....

    Future mods are Paint and Panel, wheels, possible turbo, custom interior.
    I have a VP Senitor kit here to go one when I get money for paint together. I also have V8 Brake conversion with Slotted and Drilled rotors.

    Looks like a very good pick up mate, especially for $200 ..

    Never seen that colour before, is it a factory colour?

    Nice looking engine too ..

    Keep us updated *thumbs up*

    Sorry for the delayed responses been flat out with work.....I have been told its Formula Blue and came out on the VK's......


    Thanks..It has been a charm with no issues...have even found if the load is right..it seems to have LSD characteristics in the diff....as in a really tight LSD almost locker value......not sure if thats a good thing or not....

    I have 3.45 LSD to go in anyhow....

    That VP 5L ute I raced against was this colour also. I thought it must have been repainted. Seems not!. Must be a very rare colour
