[Sabbath']

Got the new cage fitted today makes the car look TOUGH AS NOW looks awesome!!!!!!!!!!!
YOU BE THE JUDGE TELL ME WHAT YOU GUYS THINK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love this thing mate, the new style Holden and Commodore badges you've got on it, and the alloy centre garnish, arent to my taste, but each to their own. Love the fact you painted it yourself, will be checking back in regularly for sure

Very tough looking. Love the chrome bar from the back.

Have you thought about removing the badging to give the car a cleaner look?

 

[chrisso 82]

CHEERS GUYS THANKS FOR THE COMMENTS!!!!!!!!!!!

About the badging DRAD i actually dont mind it but I will probably take it of 1 day to see what it looks like!!!!!!

THANKS AGAIN FELLAS!!!!!!!!

I actually don't mind the badging either - although I do prefer original badging where possible, but original badging is not always the easiest to get hold of in good condition
But good to see someone proudly displaying the Holden badge on their car. Too many people removing them and/or swapping them for chev badges these days.
When I first bought the VH, the Holden badge was removed from the grille. I found a Holden badge for it and stuck it back on

 

[chrisso 82]

Yeah darren i agree with you mate !!!!!!!!!!
CHEERS!!!!!!

Thats insane!!!

I love the old girls and this is a perfect example of TOUGH.

Personally I wouldnt be getting a bonnet scoop or anything but each to their own.

How long did it take from the start to when those first pics were taken??

 

[chrisso 82]

Cheers VB commie my car has taken 12mths to get to this point . It has not taken long at all.!!!!!!!!
