Appreciate the links (I've seen all those actually) - problem is they're all 40+ year old rubber and are likely covered in scuffs, grazes, dings etc. Not something you can tap out unfortunately! I'm after brand new rubber, like you can buy for LH/LX/HX/HQ/HZ from Rare Spares. Almost every...

I've searched high and low but as best as I can tell, nobody makes reproduction rubbers for VB/VCs (I guess VH, too.) Seems that they can be found for pretty much every other chrome-bumpered Holden, but the Commodores miss out. I've not looked *too* closely, but these seem to just be a basic...

Thanks heaps guys, that's great to know. A bit of a shame that the AC blower is so prominent, the VC otherwise has such a clean bay. Aircon, or clean bay are my choices I guess! :)

Hi all, Does anybody know much about the heating / aircon blower setup in VCs? I'm looking to get back into the game before prices get much sillier, I note that some have a blower up against the firewall on the passenger side, and others do not. Obviously all of them still have heaters and...

I'm hoping he might have had a chance to fix this issue sometime in the 10 years since he posted it! :)

Not keen to separate - but it's a 4 speed shifter plate anyway. Is there a difference between the two?

LOL hey - I didn't notice who I was replying to ;) used to your SC avatar :P Wasn't a pro fit- it was a little funny at the back - but straightforward the whole way. Took the best part of a day though. Shame it wasn't really removable hey? So my old girl still kicking about?

Go with these guys mate: Holden C&G auto upholstery, door trims, headlinings, Golfball vinyl delivered all over Australia, velour, vinyl and leather, Top quality work at an affordable price They made mine for the VK and did a fantastic job of it, looked simply awesome once fitted and trimmed...

Rumour has it that it regulates the pressure of the fuel.

My door creaks over bumps... sounds like it's about to fall off :p FYI - I don't have plastic over any of my strikers, either...

Which bits are they?

Hrm I might have to sus mine out - I have the same problem. The door lets water in at the top too - I assumed the door was just located poorly (cheap acco repairs?) - but I'll have a look and see if this might help :)

Ahh the mechanic doing the roady said he'd hook me up with a couple of passable 2nd handies for free so I'm pretty cool - cheers dude :D (btw sorry - didn't see your earlier reply!)

Ahaha spewin dude... I've got all brand new (1000 kms old tops) upper and lower arms, etc that I gotta sell now... argh! Ahh well hopefully someone will buy them :) Hey I've got a chrome air cleaner and a Unifilter to suit for the Varijet if you're keen... Covered in my greasy pawprints...

Sorry bro, someone beat ya over on SC - picking up this Sat :)

Be a bastard to post! How's the project coming along? Any other bits I could interest you in? They're only 25 spline axles too... wouldn't you be after 28s? :) edit: this is what I did to the VK: So... I went out and bought this: :D

Chasing expressions of interest on this one before I yank it out. Complete VK rear axle, disc-to-disc. Borg Warner 3.23 diff, no noise etc. Will swap straight in place of drum brake rear end. Would be chasing at least $100 to make it worthwhile pulling out (will make the car a right bastard...

Yeah just need them to actually pass :)

Reckon those 2 good rims would pass a roady? Need 2 for the VT :)

Got a full set of unmolested Lovell's Super Low springs and Gabriel shortened shocks (all around a year old, installed all at the same time) - cost $450, will sell for $150 if you're keen. Will shoot ya an SMS :) Edit: also got Nolathane-recod (actually reco'd by Nolathane) upper and lower...

Hi guys, Selling the custom carpets out of the VK. These carpets are charcoal grey, and are in the style of newer carpets (not loop pile, but more like VT and newer carpets). Colour goes with anything! These were purchased from Tru-Fit in Dandenong, and are an excellent fit. Made a huge...

Got a part number? Will be heading down M-town way next weekend :)

Spent 5 mins trying to figure out what looked wrong with the back of it... They've just painted the VT rear fill panel instead of fitting a VX one! Reckon if you fit the VX one it'll look 10x better, other than that, sweet first car dude :D

Yeah I guess I'd only be taking ~5mm off each axle huh :) Still, VLT axles won't be cheap to find... though probably cheaper than getting VN axles shortened though.

Doing it that way never actually crossed my mind! But were there any 28-spline axles to suit the VK housing? The VL housing was 11mm wider than the VK BW housing... and I don't think any VK's had the 28 spline axles...

Hi guys, Currently investigating options to fit a VN diff into the VK. Here's the current setup: VK BW78 3.23 disc rear-end VS S-Pack rims with 215/60 rubber Whiteline adjustable panhard rod Lovells Superlow springs Right now, the rims sit RIGHT at the top of the guard and there's...

Dude they're under $100... just buy one! :)

Yeah I'll probably do the wiring myself TBH, there's a bloke that makes kits for them :) Oh - no longer selling the kit - was for the 202 but that's sold a month ago or more... soz!

Yeah I've heard the VL tanks tend to work a bit better :)

Hi guys, After finally getting the suspension bolted up in the VK (ready to sell) - I've started to reconsider selling it. So I'm toying with the idea of sticking an injected 304 under the bonnet... but I no longer have the time or space to do a project like this - meaning that I'll pretty...

Well then you're easily set dude... just replace the 8GA with the 4GA I got - I've leave the 8GA out and keep it for amp cabling for the next car :) Like I said I'll get some pics, it's a pretty decent setup.

I've got 4GA and 8GA running in parallel - so it's not 4GA on it's own. It was SLIGHTLY slower to kick over; but this would easily be fixed by running another length of 4GA instead of the 8GA that's there. But it's not a problem, it worked fine for me :) I did the conversion in the middle of...

Looking for the same mate; you'll be lucky. Even S2 VT SS's are rare in manual, only seen a couple for sale under 15 - and they've usually got the km's to match :( Think I'm gonna have to settle for auto!

You want some cable too? I've gotta move the battery back to the engine bay for RWC - only did the conversion about 2 months back. It includes terminals, a 100A circuit breaker with digital voltage readout, all cabling (inc multiple earthing cables), distribution block, and connectors (all...

Okay no probs - so the full VK Calais loom (it's missing the taillight harness I think, not that you'd miss that) and the rest of the gear... It'll box up quite nicely... though it'll weigh a couple of kg, so postage could be up to $15... Call it an even $90 including post?

The EFI loom's perfect; the main loom isn't as good but only because of the fuserail. I was goona buy one of those fuserails too; looks like he's made a new model :) Say $75pp? edit: I'll get photos if you like :)
