Hey everyone here's my 1990 vn
There's a bit of a storey about this car i bought it about 5 years ago but sold it just over a year ago and well it went up for sale the other day so i went out and put a deposit on it again should be picking it up in the next 2 weeks. am a bit disappointed as the car is now in a pretty bad state but i put to much time into the car to let it stay like that
When i bought it it was 100% stock auto vn v6 well did some stupid things and lost my licence so while i had no licence i fitted slotterd rotors 17s lowered it body kitted it and of course chuck a manual set up in exhaust cold air induction any way here's how it looked in the end.
Any way now it needs new suspension drive train work my stato interior has been removed same as the side skirts (i keeped the front bar and rims) and needs new sterio again.
any way my plans are for when i get it back is bring it home stick it in the shed full strip down and rebuild respray fix every little imperfection. get a vs to vy super 6 for it fit vs front end bolt the manual box to the l67 try find a set of coil overs vp gts sides and rear to the vn aero front and group A grill.
Some may think I'm stupid but this car was my pride and joy and made me feel sick seeing it in its current state. will get a new set of pics once i get the car back but its going under a full rebuild to be driven to Melbourne next year.

Thanks steve well i got it back home yesterday and well its trashed seats are stuffed same as motor and has diff slap now and hail damage so this weekend b ring on the strip down to send it off to the panel shop and already in talks with a guy for a vl k frame to put in a rb25
Well some bad news got it home and the guy i sold it to seems like hes jumped it and bent the body but i found a vp shell with 180 000kms so im puting all my gear into it heres some pics.
when i got it
With aero front bar and vn group A grill
Tomorrow will be hopefully converting to ecotech manual and fiting the vp senator rear bar and sides and lowering it and puting in my stato seats
The Vp now has the ecotech fitted and has vx r8 rims
That might be a rare 4wd vpthe other one looks mad good luck i love vn's cheers.
He said shell, so there is no motor in it, Naturally its going to sit higher at the front.
