Pretty dirty looking, was supposed to be running, but doesnt matter to much.

Solid cammed
A decent start to a project The 253s are getting easy to obtain and full VC/VH cars are getting cheap, making the swap easy to do under a grand...
Luckily the sunroofs are the same as per most of the other Holden fitted Hollandia's size wise, making replacement rubbers easy to source. I bought a VH shell recently with an SV5000 one fitted. It was 3 way and had a better switch setup, sadly the frame was warped due to some stick welding by the looks.
If you want to keep power windows, upgrade to VL motors, as just the same as the ones you have fitted, the cast metal legs snap off, the VL ones are mounted on pressed tin. The looms are easy enough to install, the wires feed off the one pin in fuse box and also feed the power antenna.
