little update

thanks for ya comments guys, glad to here you like it.
little update i guess, took the car down to pedders the other week to get my warped front disc n power steering checked out cos its a bit wonky at the mo. apparently the previous owner got a dodgy fix a while back, n apparently the bloke put the wrong p/s rack in it, its meant to be variatronic or somethin, but ive also been told that the rack shouldnt matter n it may just be the pump or fluids.
but yeah pedders said all the upper and lower bushes in the front end are basically f***ed, the lower rear bushes are too i think, bent Z bar (never heard of one? anyone know what it is?) umm rear springs not trapped (doesnt bother me) steering gear tight (obviously) and yeah the disc.. but for all this they quoted me $1600!! i thought this seemed a little over the top? but im new to owning a car so i may be wrong... what do you guys reckon?
i booked it into a small mechanic to check it out but gotta wait til april.
also what sort of fuel economy are you guys with vn/vp/vq v6s getting. cos im gettin nearly 14L per 100kms and no matter how softly i drive it it wont budge down but i put my foot down a couple of times n it goes up another point...
other than all that shes treating me great:thumbsup:

Even though you bought it for 7g you will always mod the car more and it will cost you a mint, bushes on most of the older commdores are always stuffed and most likely factory fitted and never touched. $1600 sounds steep to me, but i am a tight ass

Tuff car man, sun roof is killa.

Any plans for the interior at all seeing as the exterior is looking sexy as

That looks real nice mate, bobtail spoiler looks tops too. Must say though, those windscreen wipers in white look nasty....I think black ones looked have looked much classier..
