91 Vn V8

This is my Ride.

A VN Executive with lots and lots of other Holden bits.

I purchased the car some time ago as a crashed/half fixed car.

Diff was 10mm out of wack & the front strut (LHS) bent back after hitting a gutter.

Had all that fixed now and it drives and steers great.

More info later.

woah that looks pretty clean. your right it does have lots and lots of other holden bits on it lol. much work to fix it all up? did you do it yourself?

Did most of the work like the Statsman loom and climate control myself. Had the local panel beater move the diff back over.

Just had the LSD rebuilt so no more smokies

. The single spinner just could not hang on.

Has a Greenfoam tune

.

Has Calais insides including the nice thick carpet hood lining and light set.

Yep got a bit of everything in it. VR SS dash tag. VS CAI. Statesman L3 dash cluster. Berlina door cards. VP electric arial.

Fitted the statesman console lights the other week. Next is the cig lighter for the back.

Has extractors and redback muffler with no rear muffler. I drive with the radio off. Love the sound of the V8

Also has a V6 badge on the back garnish. V8 ones get nicked all the time.

Can't go past a VN exective for raw speed I bet it would come real close to cutting a 14.5 1/4 drive to the track drive home style. How good are those VR indicator stalks eh

best mod you can do

The Green wagon has been sold to a family member for $500.00 - cheap I know, just didn't want to give it away to a car yard for peanuts.

Next is a SV5000 body kit and a coat of nice "last Monaro yellow".

Looks like it to me, there's one in my VP (all VP's seem to have them beause the VP one sucked), I love it for all my highway driving and one finger beam/indicator switching. It's just right with the SS/Calais wheel

1 shows the new profile that was hit with the gutter

Also has country pack springs in it. makes it easy to get in and out of.
