Loved my VL. Awesome car.

Those seats look like VN Calais seats by the way. They look a lil funny. Quite wide.

VL Calais had the rear head rests too whereas berlina and executive did not.

Calais also had climate control and cruise control, central locking and power windows Im pretty sure too.

Think They all had shitty 185 rubber through the range though hahahaha Calais might have come with 195.


no vl had climate control......
there vl seats to unless vn came out in 1986?my seats have the 1986 date painted on the underside.

ok here it sits in 99.9% r/w condition.all that's needed now is bearing in tail shaft done.note it has not been washed in 6 months still has cobwebs and bird **** on it.

notice the ugly stock height.....

so on Tuesday i had a permit for the day.got the tires pulled of the vr senator replica rims and transferred onto the walkys and got a wheel alignment.
i then got my engineers cert for where the sub hole was in the parcel shelf.

so just waiting on the steering wheel,certificate to arive then the car is going into regency and will be 100% legal

That's a great project, it's good to see it going in the right direction. I like how the interior is now too
