    hey

    Just bought this car, for $2500 it is my first car and I'm quite pleased with my find

    Model: 1985 Vk Calais
    Engine: 202, Black, EFI
    Colour: White/Silver
    Rims: 16" speedy (already on the car)
    Km's: 300,000+ km's
    Mods: I believe it has been lowered, all the speakers we're replaced, Sony head deck, new exhaust
    Transmission: Trimatic
    Price: $2500
    Future Mods: If I can get an exemption for my p's while learning as an apprentice mechanic I'm hoping to replace the 202 with a 5.0l, sub and amp
    I will be updating after I have washed and waxed the car. just for a little comparison

    Also a bit of a thanks to VKCOMMO for insisting I'd join this site and post up some pics.

    My appologies it is a trimatic I shall change it.
    and yeah i'm hoping to get an exemption from tafe if I can but I think I told you I'm most likely signing out because I've been given the chance to take an apprenticeship as a mechanic so....
