Well i finally got an SS! WooHoo
Ok, i have had many makes and model cars over the years but never an SS lol. (one of those bucket list things)
Model:
2000 VX SS Commodore
Motor:
Gen3 LS1
Transmission:
4spd Auto
Exhaust:
X-Force Exhaust
Suspension:
FE2 suspension
Paint:
Phantom Micra Black
Interior:
Black/Red Leather Door Cards
Chrome Door Handles
Leather Seat Skins with Red Stitching
Really bad pic as it is so dirty you can't tell the colour of it.
He wanted $11,500 and as the guy from Wheeler Dealer would say, "I think your being a bit cheeky at $11.5, how about $8? Sold...
So i got me an SS which runs nice, no ticking or noises but the Body and Interior are a bit sad.
Drove it home on a permit from Brissy to Southern Gold Coast, took 2.5hrs with slow traffic (normally 1.5hrs) and it went very well.
The Drivers Seat is almost gone but the rest is ok.
If you look it is just the stitching which has let go, you might be able to save and rebuild it.... But i have another idea.
Found these on eBay, $1600 for a full set of Front n Back
Leather skin to replace the material original skin.
Once the interior is sorted i will get a set of wheels, same as my Profile Pic
Vertini Gold Drift 19x8.5 19x9.5 Rims 235/19/35 265/19/30 Tyres
Will give it a wash tomorrow and get some more pics...
