Yeah, aren't you only on your red p's? lol
Nah, she looks sweet mate, good find I reckon.

[Haydz]

i begun cleaning it up for rego yesterday.

need to replace a tyre and also the tyre for the spare.

found a little bit of rust around the boot seal too. nothing too scary though


motor clean up began now. but then it started raining





Also noticed something to give me a bit more performance

.

[Jo3_Blo]

Thats pretty nice mate. You only paid 3,500 for it?

Wow. That's a bargain.

[Haydz]

thought id do a test fit of the rims from the old vr.

in my opinion they are too small and dont really suit the car.


i think they will be going up for sale with the berlina.






yeah mate got it for 3,500 with no rego. needed a few tyres a good scrubbing and some new front discs/pads

[Jo3_Blo]

Well thats a bargain.

You not keepin both cars?

[Haydz]

nah cant afford to keep both. and really i dont need two.

wish i had a garage where i could work on the caprice and keep it as a weekend car. but at the moment my circumstances wont allow it.

[s1knt]

I think it doesnt look to bad,maybe needs to be lowered,wouldnt mind a stato myself,hmmm might be time to sell the VR already.

[Haydz]

couple interior shots.

i really need a new steering wheel.

the seats from my old vr are in better condition. so they will be transferred over to this one before i sell it.

[TVR-190]

have you found the build sheet yet

[Haydz]

it doesnt have one.

its supposed to be under the passenger carpet correct?

[rch-13z]

I heard you got beaten by a charade the other day....

[NickVR]

That interior looks awesome.

[Haydz]

couldnt resist.

[TVR-190]

be careful with those foggies, u might dazzle someone.

i want your interior haydz, but get rid of the stupid phone holder

[PaulSV6]

Great buy Hayden, well done
I can imagine it handles like a boat compared to the VR
U should be able to sort heaps of parts for that car!

[dbarnes]

hey mate. still interested in that interior, tried to send u a message but says you have chosen not to receive private messages.

[nicko]

No water restrictions at Haydzs house

[Jo3_Blo]

Your other VR looks pretty cool..........(havn't really seen pics of it before) I like it.

Yeh, too bad you can't keep both. Oh well. Its a statesman, and it's a 5 litre. So nuff said lol.

[Johnsy]

^^ joe-blo its a caprice not a statesman

Nice one mate.. gotta love the luxo cruiser !

Are you swapping over your tow bar also ?
