I have a 1986 VL commodore wagon for sale as i dont have room for 3 vl's anymore. It's just a rolling shell but there is a few other parts im also selling if anyones interested. The car has been in primer for a little over 2 years and will require some attention. the door and tailgate frames have been smoothed and resprayed in the factory red. this is a shell only. no panels, interior or driveline (maybe front struts and diff but i dont know yet). panels, motor, gearbox and driveline are available at an extra cost. contact me for a deal. $100 ono

Will swap for a couple of deep pan pepperoni pizza's and a 6 pack of JD

Jacob vl · 12-12-11, 09:36

Mmmmm The pizza and jd sound good, Just wack it on ebay no reseve

gold-vlt · 12-12-11, 20:35

Yeah i think i may try that, I'm going to have to strip the drivetrain out before i put in on there though because if not giving it away for f all with a brand new diff and single piece tailshaft in it.

If i can get enough for it i'll throw in four doors and a tailgate

Jacob vl · 13-12-11, 09:36

what diffs it got? im after a lsd or a minispooled one

gold-vlt · 13-12-11, 10:30

the diff isnt for sale mate. i'm using the brand new pinion and crown gears from it to replace the smashed ones in my lsd vl turbo diff. mini spools are cheap if your current diff is in good condition but why would you want a spool in a road registered car? thats just dangerous. you shouldnt be trying to bust skids everywhere anyway unless you wanna risk smashing your car or killing someone. just get a lsd and keep it safe.

Jacob vl · 13-12-11, 13:12

lol i dont skid my car, im thinking about turboing my car just thort $100 for a spool sounded beta than $800 for a diff. i know its a bit off topic but what are your thorts about turboing a n/a vl? my car its a auto exet its in exreamly good nic fully orginal i got it off the orginal owner done 170,000km.

gold-vlt · 13-12-11, 15:00

There's nothing wrong with turbocharging a na vl. if anything id imagine it would be nicer to drive than a original vl turbo cause it would have better off boost performance with the higher compression. i have a full turbo conversion up for sale in the for sale and qld section if you are interested and i could probably lend a hand with the conversion its self. The price is negotiable too and thetes stuff in there not needed for the conversion such as the intake manifold and wiring loom

And with only 170,000 k's you shouldnt be too worried about it. just make sure the air fuel ratio is correct. is your car auto?

Jacob vl · 13-12-11, 15:18

yeah auto, i get my opens next year in november but i have a exemshon to drive turbos and v8's for work during the week. so im not realy in any rush, even tho i love to do it tomoz lol.

gold-vlt · 13-12-11, 19:20

no worries. man im glad i dont have to wait that long for my opens its hard enough waiting a few months. gives me plenty of time to build a motor though so im happy.
