im another fan of droppys id have one myself if i wasnt on straight gas, dont know if you can get them to fit a vt though.
There's a Monaro with one knocking about somewhere.
I've seen someone make up a cosmetic cover, that appeared to look like a drop tank, but was only some fancy sheet metal over the existing fuel tank.

Sorry to be the new kid on the block here, but what is a drop tank?
^^^^long range fuel tank (bigger) around 85 lt and hangs down lower gives the car a tougher look in my opinion when theyre all painted up with contrasting straps.
Vt & drop tank = FAIL. If you want a drop tank, go buy a torana.
haha drop tanks are awesome, plus a proper one gives me more fuel = less to fill uppeople argue that older cars look better and that newer cars can't pull it off, i look at all these VN's and i say to myself "god that looks good" its something different, especially on a VT. look at this vy, looks so good in my oppinion

Low VT + drop tank = forever fixing holes in tank when it smacks the ground all the time.
That car actually looks ok but the sticker on the back window just cries GAY.
Oh, missed the sticker. As if the chev badge on the boot isn't enough.......
Thats my monaro with the drop tank.
I think they look awesome, and not as much money as you would think to make one.
I couldn't be happier with mine and i recommend you go for it if thats the look you want
Ahh damn it. Going to have to eat my words. That drop tank on the monaro looks tough as fark!
Aye Lassy. It's alright on the Monaro.
But I stick with my original: "Not on the VT"
Going where no late model stato/caprice has gone before.... GAME ON!!
Speed bumps would like them
The covers were sold on ebay for a while by a mob called 'Tuff tanks' i believe.
I want one for my VX, but that's a long way down the track, I just love drop tanks![]()

I put them in the same boat as venetians personally, horn on old cars, gay on new.
*hides from abuse*
they look fine on SLR5000s
but not a fan of putting fake shit on new cars that apes a bygone era
Fake drop tank called "tuff tank". WTF. Shouldnt that be gay tank. No fake shit please. You could also record the sound of a blower and play it through a speaker under the bonnet??
