    Default my vn hsv build no.158 LS commodore

    got this a couple of days ago its a hsv vn vn LS 5spd

    as for mods its pretty stock atm
    i think its got the ss lip kit or something like that
    and a set of factory mags

    things to do
    get the original steering wheel fixed and put that back on
    give it a good tidy up inside and out
    get the trow out bearing fixed
    get the floor insert piece for a manual as the previous owner did the 5spd conversion and just cut the auto 1
    and maybe have a look round for a new interior
