just got this as an upgrade from a pos lemon vt that cost me over 2 grand (ontop of the 4800 i bought it for) in just a year of owning it.

its just a standard ba xt at the moment but im going to be putting in some lowering blocks soon enough when i go back to work, keeping just the black stocky wheel look at the moment due to having no nicer ford wheels only holden etc etc, ive put all my sound system in and wired it up to the factory headunit because it looks alot nicer then mangling up the factory one and putting in an after market headunit,its got a few little nick here and there im probly not going to do any high performance engine mods because its just a daily and im saving for a 350 block to rebuild for my ute.

ive been a holden person for a long time since having my hq 1tonna as my first car and still owning it but after buying the vt and just constantly spending money on it to keep it on the road then having it blow up, do a diff a fuel pump an engine mount 2 drivers seats a passenger seat 4 tailight globes headlight fuses and about 16 tyres (fucking camber). so thats made me not want to ever buy another commodore its just made me give up on them hahaha!. so here it is. (i hope the pictures upload properly.)

least it looks like the paints in mint condition.
get the suspension sorted and chuck some wheels on it and it'll look nice.
