hi all thought id throw up my VN
little background, the car was dads from new, then i grabbed it when i got my p's, drove it for all of one week and cooked the motor, so threw another one in same thing after 4 months, bought another one and i think it was third time lucky, the latest motor has been strong from the word go, layin down 108kwatw on a stock motor with just the bellmouth removed and a custom cold air intanke
so far it's taken down a few ss's and some stock 5ltr's
cant complain with that.
inside its got calais seats apline stereo coupla gauges and a decent leather steering wheel, cars slamed on cepters and a sprayed the bars black because the grey wasnt the nicest looking on it.. currently in the process of converting it to a 5ltr in the next few weeks.

Cool clean slate to start with. Hope you have better luck with this. That sits really low!
Sounds like you got the idea converting to a 5l.
Looks very nice mate, some 18's would top it off nicely as well![]()
Good shine on that white paint you have there. Looks a treat - but does it rattle like most VN's?
