[MacoVL]

gotta love that sleeper look.
go the mighty vl.

[boofski]

clean sweet ride mate, nice and low too, do you have much trouble with the front guards hitting on the tyres, other than that i would only look at doing a bit of drive train work and leave the outside like it is

[sandos vl]

Cheers Maco , yeah boofski the front tyres rub a bit if i go over or up a dip or incline in the road but nuthing major, as for drivetrain work i after the rebuild i'll look at getting an LSD n a new box i dunno weither 2 stay auto or manual tho.

Cheers Sando.

[vn man]

nice looking vl you have there mate hows the v8 going i had a black one in my vk it was 40 thou over it was a quick vk so what speed you had it up to

[injectthevenom]

dam nice car are you goign to keep it sleeper or give her a respray later on?

[TazmanCrash]

Looks nice. Hate the rims tho. But thats an easy fix

[cairns monar]

looks like a good sleeper sandos do some engine mods and leave it looking clean and innocent on the outside

[selga86]

personally i would put some 18" alloys of some type preferably not of any ss variety as theres heaps of them round but really u got to get what you like i just reckon silver rims would suit the bumpers better but i suppose chrome goes with ne thing as well nice car either way

[Sivart]

Very clean...... Lots of potential

[sandos vl]

yeah cheers 4 the comments guys, Vn man she doesnt really go that fast onli like 140 , she'll go like a demon after the rebuild n shit hopefully.
