Hey there,
I'm 3rd owner of mine. Was a family wagon when I got it so just doing a tidy job on it. 285 km on original engine but I'm counting on the fact they're country K's . New timing chain etc at 210 ?
It's got new Pedders all around and not lowered but those short sharp speed lumps at the local shopping centre scrape the front mudflaps if I go any faster than a dead stop. The right one is split already.
Is that Delft Blue ? Looks the same as mine.
Trying to find wheels that suit too. Need fair amount of sidewall for country roads so I'm looking for something 15"/16" in black and chrome to match my interior and with the 'spokes' running from the centre. Currently has the 5 spoke things that look somewhat like the factory sport S/SS ?
Way back on your first? page you mentioned rear lights with black surround. Are they just aftermarket or from a trim /model level? Could be a good compromise between stock and full Nightshade tinted.
It is indeed Deflt Blue, my favourite colour from holden. My ute is the same.
I know what you mean about wheels. I'd prefer something with a bigger sidewall, but I haven't found any 17's I like. if dirt roads were more of an issue I'd get genuine VXSS wheels. you can find them for $300-350 with decent tread. I saw one set for $500 with brand new tyres.
The lights i wanted were genuine, from the VZSS wagon and some VYSS wagon's. But despite searching for them regularly I've never been able to find them. There used to be some on eBay but they are all long gone. Holden doesn't make them anymore, and no dealerships carry stock anymore.
