Something makes me suspect this was a shop job not a DIY one... but maybe i'm being to quick to judge....

hey guys... na mate hes a mechanic so hes doin it himself.. n my other mate is a spraypainter so he's doin the painjob.. just gotta know the right ppl lol... we're probably comin 2 skoolies in it so ill c ill leave you updated... as for pics there are none because he only just bought the car off my other mate who had owned it for 4 years and lost his licence.. cars old number plates were [XCITME] ur prob 2 young 2 remember as it was taken off the road about 3 yrs ago to be a v8 with a 355 stroker tt but that never happened... anyways ill keep u guys updated he plans to have it finished in about 3 months as his money situation looks good....

So the guy who owns the car- only bought it recently off another guy, and that guy, had owned it for 4 years and just lost his license? And the mate of yours who just bought it- the mechanic- is he the one who's doin the upgrades or was it already done up? It sounds like it was already done up beforehand but... I'll wait and see I'm also curious to see photos. Even if it's half finished; a work in progress is still nice.

yeh its sounding more and more like a bluff
prove me wrong!

 

[seremify007]

Whether it's bluff or not is one thing; but I think it's even lamer that he's bragging about his mate's car and how he's gonna be "riding in it" to Schoolies.

lol yeh, makes me wanna say "sick man thats totally wicked!"...Why purple? Purple is such a fucked colour to have on any car.

i don't like that model. i think i like the model after and before that, but not that model. that model is fat, especially it's arse end.

 

[icraig88]

[seremify007]

Looks okay. But nothing exciting?

 

[RNN-A-MUK]

[loquasagacious]

Awesome another 'pimp' VP commodore..... probably even got a hot 3-speed slushbox....

Seriously a done-up VP commodore is nothing special there are thousands and thousands of them all looking almost identical and all filled with almost exactly the same people....

Mate, don't underestimate it - it no doubt pulls a 10 second quarter. With cold air intake and everything.

Note: I don't mean yours in particular, craig. But there are truly many, many of these everywhere. They are even more commonly found in this type of 'modified' form instead of stock.
