UPDATE: The much anticipated pictures have arrived!

Thank you all for being patient while I try and get these pictures uploaded. I will show you how I got the car and in the next couple of days, will show you what I have done to the car so far.

I think one of the pictures is a bit more recent as it has the new stato seats put in.

Sorry mate...but seeing these pictures has made me a little sad on the inside.

I hope it works out for you.

My eyes.. they burn!
What the hell did they do to it?! D:

Only thing I like about it is the fact it's got a V8 and it's got some nice looking seats...

For sure your going to part it out? I hope so. Looks rougher than my old VN V6

Unless you found a cheap and good condition VQ V6 that thing is just waiting for a trip to the cube factory.
Sorry mate, don't mean to pay you out for your car, but that thing needs a **** load of work to be done to it.

Wow man, that's going to take a lot of work to bring around!

Time to look for a cheap VQ and swap the motor!

Should scrub up OK - a visit to the cleaning supply shop to buy disinfectant is a must.

3 weeks cleaning and bolting bits back together and it will look like a really tired VQ :)

I have seen worse - but not by much. - The before and after photos will win prizes.
