- 253 VH, 400rwhp 12at 323
Hey guys, I've done a bit of a search, and I was wondering if you guys could help me. A couple of months ago I picked up a VH, it's a pretty clean car with 253, lpg and a supra 5 speed. It's a great car, but I just have a few questions:
- Trims: it has the rubber trims with the chrome strips and the one on the drivers door came off. I bought the proper double sided tape stuff for car body trims but it only held it on for a couple of weeks, I assume because they are much heavier than normal plastic trims. What is the best way to stick the trims on? Also, are these trims still available to buy anywhere?
- Taillights: Is there anywhere that VH taillights can still be bought new? I can't find any aftermarket, and although I haven't rung them I assume Holden don't still stock them?
- Rust repairs: The car is very good, but has the usual bit of rust around the windscreens. Does anyone sell rust repair sections for these areas?
- Paint Colour: It is a pale blue colour, I believe it is the factory colour though the car has been resprayed at some point. Could anyone give me any tips as to what the colour might be?
If anyone can help me with these questions that would be great. I'm just looking to tidy up the car and continue to drive it for now, it drives great for what it is. When I finish my current project (turbocharged rotary) I will build a blown v8 to drop in it and overhaul it a bit more. Any help you guys can give me would be great.
Thanks in advance.
