will be keeping it as factory as possible

so all my plans are restoring, not improving :p

however since i was young ive always wanted a lumpy 8, so an exhaust with sextractors is a must, if a cam isnt to hard to pull off ill do that to.

a cam would definately be worth doing and would make it sound a lot better =) cant beat a lumpy idle

1982 VH 253 4 speed, 2006 VE SSV M6
Looks like a VC that has been updated with a VH front, and taillights I'm assuming (can't see that back properly in the pic). It has VC interior, VC bumper bar rubbers and door rubbers and VC rear quarter vents (the plastic vents behind the rear windows). Also looks to have VC style air-con from the engine bay pic.

yeah it's a VC.
in addition to the things Mr Brightside has already pointed out, also look at the speedo needle (VB/VC don't have the pointer like the VH)

she's a nice car though. Great condition!
