So i swapped my old vh wagon for this beast







Paint if a lil faded and has a few rust spots but nothing major.
Auto on the floor straight 6
Been worked at bit, has extractors and a luckey zorst.
Probably needs more work than the vh but this thing is awesome
Dont really know much about the deluxe models so if anyone knows fill me in :)

Rear louvre, left mirror, carpet and floor shifter. Haven't heard of a deluxe before but the Wiki sounds right. Belmont base. An up optioned Kingswood before the next level. Premiers ?

It would need the zorst work to help the 6 overcome the old auto to move that lump.

Yeah mate ;) haha. Na was a bit of foam from the old owner.

Couldnt get her to start yesturday, wasnt getting any fuel it the pump. Either pump is buggered, has a blockage or as my girlfriend said out of fuel. I have a feeling its out of fuel cause the needle moved a tiny bit and stopped haha

Take the pipe off the inlet side of the pump and blow backwards toward the tank. Get girl to listen into the fuel filler for bubbles. Try not to get a mouthful ...

...or if the gauge reads zero/low chuck some in , hahaha.

Deluxe was a limited edition with a few extras over the normal Kingswood.

Ok so turns out the fuel pump was sezed. All good now well that bit. Its not getting fuel up to the pump from the tank and it wont even let me blow or suck in it. Seems jammed or is there some sort of restrictor in the line? I did find a black box with the fuel lines goin into it just abouve the diff but i cant seem to find what it is :/ help me haha
