hey guys
im looking at a VK SS and i was wondering what the main things i should look for are in regards to a genuine one.
vin numbers, build numbers,engine numbers, ets
thanks
I've got one.. You should first check for build no. plate located on passenger side of fire wall. There should be no chrome on the car, door handles should be white, HDT MOMO 3 arm steering wheel with Peter Brock signature horn button. RTS SS badge just above stereo, scheel seats, parcel shelf should have a wave like shape at the back closest to rear window, color Light blue. 4 spd M21 with HDT gear knob, some have optional 5spd. Engine should have a HDT manifold and HDT dizzy. Aircleaner has a sticker with HDT 5.0 litre and brock signature on it, even though the motor is a 4.9ltr
On Compliance plate should read Eng. L31 Trans. M21 Paint No.1J052-D Axle. GU4 and Model. should start with the letters VK8VK19...
Wheels are 15inch Aero's and the body should have SS side skirts, rear wing and a brock nose cone.
You can also check the build no. with engine and body numbers with HDT to confirm if it's genuine.
Hope this helps
