My 1983 VH Holden Commodore
As a 19 year old Aussie, it's quite unnatural for me to actually like cars older then myself. But as I look at today's current model cars, I notice two small things. They're all made of plastic, and they all sound like a wind-up scooter. If I'm going to crash, I'm going to want to be in the heaviest, unbreakable machine there is available on the market. If I'm actually going to drive this car, I want people to know I'm coming before I'm there, pistons pumping, engines tilting. Now, about my car...
She has a 4.2L 253 with a 750 Holley Carborater. It's the very first car I've ever actually owned myself (without the aid of parental loans). She has 15" Performance Rims, 225 60 15R's tyres (Fat is good).
I haven't done anything to the appearance as of yet, but she also has a fully customised interior, nice and green, to go with the paint job. There's still a few problems with the electrics and the rev counter though. The horn comes on whenever I touch the indicator stick, the reverse lights don't work and the interior light doesn't work... which Kinda sucks, but I still love 'er. Any help would be appreciated though, I'm not a mechanic, so it's going to take a while for me to fix. Anything at all, questions, queries, advice, whatever. It will all be taken in consideration.
