VP_Exec's Dove Grey BT1 - now with 20's and Pics!"

[vp_exec]

Hi guys,

Just picked up my new ride and thought I'd post a couple of pics...

Bought it and drove it 1000km home faultlessly, very happy! Drove like your Nana the whole way home and managed 10l/100km with the 304 and auto...

Ripped plenty of Dove Grey stuff off the old girl and gradually replacing with plain jane series 1 black stuff - like elec side mirrors, door handles, clear grille replaced when I got home with new headlights (took HSV grille off).

Stuck some 15x6 with 205/65r15 Pirelli's on front and 15x7 with 225/60r15 Hankooks on rear, on new chasers that I painted up.

Has a nice Momo wheel, ABS/IRS, clarion CD, under guard coldair, Tri-Y's, twin cat exhaust, Koni's, Pedders rear springs, big tank, Recaro drivers seat recovered back to stock.

Paint is honestly 9.5 out of 10 with one dint in front guard that I reckon will push out.

Will retro fit cruise, new carpet, rip the tint off as it is ordinary, and refit all stock Exec bagdes to the boot (have already done front guard badges)...

Keen to know what u all think.

new tail lights... STAT!!!!

other than that, looks pretty clean. i would have kept the mirrors and handles as is though, much neater.

IRS Exec FTW , It's Mortons dream car, I agree with hakky on the mirrors and handles. Black is the winner there

nice find mate! ss wheel aswell! , i reckon thats probably one of the best colours in the vp range

Yeah I used to own a white VP Series 1 many moons ago, and always loved it when I saw a Dove Grey one.

Unsure about black accessories now - wanted to swap them to black but getting used to colour.

Will post a For Sale getting rid of colour coded 16's, letterbox grille, bonnet protector as a package I think.

Oh and definetly new tailights on the way too!!!

That not a SS wheel, more like a group A? something like that anyway

Yeah It makes me sad to see a VP exec V8 in such BEAUTIFUL condition that I DON'T OWN! *slams fist into table*

You are a very lucky man. NEVER modify the body to anything other than stock. EVER.

Oh, by the way VP_exec, if you're ever selling - I have a nice white stato I could swap with some money hahaha
