January 4, 2017 at 11:00 pm #21350Rare birds these things, Nice example
July 23, 2017 at 5:48 pm #23716Thanks, Haven’t done alot recently.
Picked up some fog lights with surrounds and brackets – yet to fit.
Trans cooler – need to fit that as well when i service the trans.
Changed coolant, new heater tap is on its way. That broke haha.
Replaced the front shocks and strut tops – Bilstein and Nolathane, have Nolathane sway bar links to go on also.
Also have some 20″ VE GTS wheels I’m painting to change it up a bit, Wont be getting rid of the original wheels though, they will go into the shed.
Still need a bunch of bits I’ve had no luck finding sadly.
Did get some photos out the front of Holdens before it shuts down, Here’s one of them.
July 26, 2017 at 7:43 pm #23780Look after her! They are very underestimated imo. Favourite calais ever (except for the VL )
