Hey guys i have decided to finally get to showing you lot the project i have been doing for the past two and a bit years. A 1981 Holden VH Commodore, Rhone green in color hosting a Series one VN V6 engine, automatic gearbox, complete VN series one loom, VS Berline front and back seats and a few other bits and pieces from VN to VX.
My original plan was to bang in a VS/T Super charged V6 and box and do a complete dash change over to a VT/X style but due to not enough funds at the time went with the S1 V6. So far it would have to be about 90-95% finished with just some wiring to do, checking everything over then fingers crossed conect the battery to the starter and turn the key and fire her up, then all going good off to the Engineer to get the report to make the conversion leagal then to re register her.
Other mods i have done to her is removed the full VH loom to replace with VN to make it easier to plug the other stuff in, moved the battery to the boot to tidy up the bay (was also going to hide to wiring but got lazy there lol), instaled the VN radiator and fan, VN V6 complate front end shocks and all, VN steering column with ignition barrel and a sports wheel.
I also installed a VR/S beside the drivers seat pull release for the fuel door, VR/S front door map pockets and moved the original front ones to the back doors. I am in the process of tracking down a good conditioned VK dash cluster surround plastic to cut and add to the VN dash cluster i will be using as i have seen a full working one done by VK3800 if you know him, ill try to add pics as long as i can work out how to do it. Will let you guys know how its going once i have done more cheers
