One too many zeros, and then it's still wishful thinking.

$75,000 he was probably after $7500 but still that dosen't make sense - so i don't know maybe the '7' is a typo 2? $500 is the right price?

LMAO... But what about the mag-wheels that's gotta add a couple of grand to the price, surely!

Maybe he's saying that for $75,000 he'll pay you to take it off his hands...

Yeah I think there's one too many zeros.

Although for a VP it's clean, not worth $7500. (Assuming that's the price he went to put in)

Didnt a VP Commodore have 127kw at the crank?

So maybe with a supercharger it could put out as much as a base model EB Falcon?

Bloody V6 Commodore drivers **** da shat out of me.

The thing that annoys me is that since these old cars have shot suspension they feel like their going fast as they bounce over the road cracking 120km/h.

Until I flogged them in my old Laser which put out 76kw at the crank lol lol lol lol

Seriously anybody called this guy up?
