@@orestosgarage it's ok

Thanks mate

Not a bad colour. I got the grass out with a quick sand, and a buff came out easy with a elbow grease lol

I wasn't a fan of the colour but has grown on me over time, needs a rub back, then cleared the customer wants clear over the blue

Cheers mate looks OK for a vs 😄

Thanks

Thanks John lots of hours have gone into this build so far, and I nearly finished my part of the build, and then it'll head back to the owner for him to finish the HG of thanks for the support

Hey mate, I use Cam di.ox.it and 2K PPG epoxy primer 20lt kit. Now I was using carmasters, not much in value thanks for the support.

@@orestosgarage thx mate.

Yep, there's a company near me that's does this on the VE not a fan of there work

The subaru has some cool stuff were converting an impreza hatchback at the moment from non turbo to turbo with all the fruit, but that's my wifes car lol

@@orestosgarage I’m still experiencing lag from the CVT even w the Turbo but when it’s in the mood and you punch it it’ll push your head back.

We had an idrive in the last one that sort most of the lag for a cheap fix but need a new program and a good tune

Nothing like a fake scoop 😄 🤣

Because it's a sexy look....very sexy......VE IS SEXY

I'm no VE fan or a bonnet scoop fan, but some can look ok

Well, what the customer brings in and wants gets I'm no fan of the VE or bonnet scoops, but here we are.

Thank you very much!

Not all I had a factory V8 Acclaim not many but was an option in the day

@@orestosgarage Was it a VS ? I know back in the day the Police package on the VR/ VS series pretty much SS spec in an executive body along with the SS seats . Just saying that I never heard of this option before with the acclaim series.

@96libertytt that’s correct. There was no way to option a V8 into an Acclaim, but you know, my uncle’s brother in law knows a guy who drank at a pub with the boss of Holden and special ordered one……. Same story with magical factory manual Acclaims….. Acclaim was a set pack aimed at fleets with very few options. This car has the optional power windows (2 or 4) which could be fitted at dealer level or factory (if ordered) and the spoiler could have been dealer fitted (as many were) or by a subsequent owner. No HSV-e tag on this, and nothing on it that HSV would have touched…. All the correct factual info is right there in the VS sales brochure too.

Hey mate, thanks for the support. I got a lot of videos to cone out with the HG, HZ and more just chip away at your project you'll get there.

Cheers mate. I did a bit this weekend on the fire wall… need more Tim in a day
