I like how this one says that the body is completely factory, except for the wheels... and the calais front & vl director A pillar moulds!

Starting at $28k (reserve not met) and buy it now for $33k.

QLD car, 121,941kms and the engine has been molested to a 383 stroker.

I guess if you wanted a low kms VL with a 450hp stroker motor, walky kit/paint/interior/TTB, and 20s this isn't a bad buy. It's never going to be a highly sort after car though

Good for parts if the price was a bit lower.

Yep, thats a mockup! Youve got to laugh though, the writeup tries to play up the price so you think you're getting a deal?

If it was genuine then missing the HSV tag would be no big deal as the GMH tags are pictured in the engine bay shot and would be enough to confirm the cars identity.

Yeah, maybe but have a look at the build date, the engine number and even the dash badge.

I think this car was on ebay over a year ago. If it is the same one the J plate was still on the car, so would you be able to verify it through HSV?

If you knew which build # it was, then yes.... HSV only need you to have the build # and J number to verify..

It's back up again - any way of finding out what Build# it is?
