1990 – Vn Holden Commodore
"The wags"
The car started life as a 1990 VN Holden commodore station wagon v6 auto it had been off the road since 2009 I brought it in 2016 then over the next 8.5 years slowly did my own thing to it when I had spare money to buy stuff for it and when I had spare time as work and young kids family comes 1st I pulled the v6 auto out and then I built a mild 5L v8 for it so its injected short block with 308 heads port matched heads and inlet mild cam and put a Holden 4 speed manual behind it I always wanted to build my own tribute to the late Peter Brock so then I put the vn group A front on it and made some sedan side skirts fit the wagon so thats what it is my own 1 of 1 vn group A wagon tribute all built paneled and painted by me in my shed it no show quality car but tidy enough to put in shows and built to drive.
