I'm looking to buy a 1979 VB SLE and would like to know if what i'm buying is genuine.

Model- VB8vx69
Body no- 660270L1
Trim- 1952-77y
Paint- 567-30851

L31 M41 G70

It's a shadow tone car (black/blue? over silver) with red interior.

If anyone can help with the paint names etc, it would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I thought that VB's had the shadow tone option as well?
Oh well, thanks again.

310 Pack is SLE.That number should be the last 3 numbers on the first line. 308, Turbo 400 or 350, 2.78 diff ratio.Tough box.

Shadowtone was unavailable in VB period according to my paint chart. Do note however there is a paint top and bottom. Certain fleet orders had particular schemes - cabs etc. I think air force cars had white roof with blue body. In addition VB, VC and maybe VH (?) had option of a vinyl roof, adding extra possible colour.

Nope, only VC onwards got the option pack number after the model code line. Also G70 denotes a 2.60:1 diff not a 2.78.
