Used to rock a $500 white VN specced out full stock :woo: until it blew the autobox so I stepped up to a $600 5spd VP Vacationer

So I made sure to get in and give it a good clean in and out

So far shes got a bigger pipe through to the back coming off some second hand pacemakers, ive cleaned and serviced her as best I can with my learning skills, seems to keep it runnin right.

I'd want to do more to it, but its just not worth it.

King superlows I scored off a mate parting out his VP not sure of the shocks, short body monroe's maybe? was a while ago

Getting ultralows for the back end in the coming days, still sits a bit high for my liking

They go well wedged in the back seat between parcel tray, flutters gently inside the rear window hah

Nice pickup, wish i could find something like that in Adelaide! its all i really need at the moment.

My mate picked up a VP 5 speed Vacationer in the same colour a while back and grabbed a bunch of parts off my SV3800, made it handle like it was on rails (For a VP), and gave it some more balls, man, i miss my SV3800, and subsequently, His Vacationer!
