    Rust repair

    Has anybody fixed rust in this area on a vb commodore or similar? Just wondering if it’s a common rust spot or whether I might be able to get a cut off another car or whether to get a panelbeater to fab one up for me. Thanks

    Vh slx

    So after finding out the outrageous panel costs needed to panel and paint my vb I have spent the last 6 months looking out to see if there’s much better around as a base, I have looked at 3 cars for around 20k and all were meant to be rust free tidy cars, turns out 1 of the 3 was a rusty bogged...

    Vb 253 conversion

    I’m looking at a really tidy vb wagon at the moment it’s a red 202 with the m20 manual I was thinking along the lines of converting to a 253 at some stage if I get it with the reasons being I wouldn’t have to upgrade the diff as the 253 cars used the small Salisbury, also an m20 would also...

    Vh sle

    Hi I’m looking at a vh sle at the moment it is 2 tone looks to be Rhone green over silver factory 308 trimatic. How can I confirm it is a genuine two tone the only paint code on the tag is 2j011d which I think is for the silver? It has the dark green sle interior. Thanks

    vh bt1 diff

    Hey I have just seen a vh bt1 diff come up for sale out of a 6 cylinder car it’s disc brake and non lsd gu4 3.08 ratio. Will this be a 10 bolt Salisbury? Is it worthwhile upgrading to this on my vb sl 6 cylinder to get the disc brakes and a bit of extra strength or wait for a lsd? Thanks.

    1980 vb sl

    I picked up this vb last year from a paddock on a country road near my work, had been neglected for a few years by the owner but was originally owned by a guy all it’s life who sold it in his 80s 3 years ago as steering got to heavy for him. Lots of surface rust I’m assuming because it was under...
