I love seeing builds like this and hope to do one on my Volvo 940 some day.

[@PetesBuilds]

I have decided to put a 304 into my vk, this video i hope can help with a few technical questions, brilliant! So far I have bought and wrecked a VN SS 5 speed and have all the running gear ready to go, going to be epic!! Just cannot believe the timing...

[@jarrynsmith]

Pete RS will be a monster i want to sacrifice my VR ss to build a blue meanie replica,dont give up on old cars

[@TheSunnyTrails]

Get a 5 litre v8 Buick when you get some more money and blow the 304, she’ll be OFF TAP!

[@gosportjamie]

That is a very beige interior. It looks like that one sat for some time judging by all the crap collected in the fuel filler flap...

[@kimmielame5116]

[@harro9447]

[@HazeyAuto]

Still got the Black 202, boys? I'll find a home for it and bring it to Drag Challenge next year!

[@skaiyontheslide]

is this going to race the taxi, that would be a good video

[@Camhin1]

So can you register a car in Australia with a full cage?

[@TheSunnyTrails]

Yes but you have to get a engineering mod plate

[@pratt1bp]

hope you didnt scrap that tank and bonnet. VK tanks and bonnets. are getting hard to find!!

[@Sam125s]

Please keep it the factory red/grey!!!

[@zaneblackwell6566]

what year model

[@RussellBooth1977]

Is that 60 kilowatts the rear wheel power or the flywheel power? I know that the black carby 202 was rated at 85 flywheel kilowatts nett from the factory so if that's probably down from normal wear & tear. I can remember that car manufacturers in Australia rated their horsepower output in gross figures meaning that the red carby 202 engine was rated at 101 kilowatts when the nett figure was 66 kilowatts. So it is believable that Holdens reason for dropping the 253 V8 engine is because its power output wasn't much less than the EFI 202 engine (6 kilowatts less than that 202 at 100 kW nett) but I have been told that the 253 engine is better on fuel with a steady right foot. The fuel consumption of all of the 202 engines I think are all the same so I'm not sure why Holden claimed that their fuel consumption was similar to the 173 cubic inch six (25-26 miles per gallon) with the implementation of electronic spark timing in the mid 1980's. I've driven the EFI VK Commodore & its fuel economy was the same as the HQ Kingswood my dad used to drive. The best we got out of it was 20-21 miles per gallon on a highway trip or 18 miles per gallon on a combined cycle,it was thirsty !!!! When he bolted the 173 engine in,he got about 28 miles per gallon out of it when it was coupled to the trimatic auto box & 3.55:1 diff ratio.

[@STREETMACHINETV]

Russell Booth rear wheel

[@8wireracing694]

boys when this fulla says about it being a common rail car what does he mean.?

[@jarrynsmith]

looked like it wanted to smoke up pretty bad 60kw and double leggers arn't heaps common in the same sentence

[@myusernames1967]

Note to self!! If i ever pop a rear window cover it in contact first so it all stays together.

[@zaneblackwell6566]

how much did u pay for it?

[@brandonroberts73]

All show no go

[@captainkaos754]

You’d no about that with ya fords wouldn’t ya clown. Ya boss boat anchors made no power and were a heavy lump of crap and 351 s regularly threw a leg out of bed.

[@alycestapleton]

what red back just a common black spider

[@MartinMcMartin]

Much cooler than that fu#%ing yellow taxi! :)

[@mountainconstructions]

Reverse didn't seem to work

[@TheDettmers]

kinda sad that an old bloke loved it and owned it for 33 years and now this is happening but at least if will be loved again

[@BigDeeDee90]

For Aussie blokes you think you'd be able to tell the fuckin difference between a redback and and black widow spider haha nice gritty video haha

[@kiqnkf3201]

Shoulda got Shannon from Roy's windscreens to pull glass out...

[@2litrepeter.]

Yer. Only had to cut the rubbers...

[@brettcole877]

when out driving in my XF i luv seeing vc-h-k-L's out n n about still cruising town- xf weighs 1333 Kg Bf falcon 1550 Kg 200 kg dif

[@noone8744]

brett cole and yet so many people think modern cars are lighter lol

[@TheSunnyTrails]

I can’t believe you would thrash this vk, just because it’s a beater before you work it doesn’t mean you should fuck it putting it in reverse. Cmon guys respect the car a bit more.

[@decayingcorpse]

Dirty dirty VK :)

[@ExisTdopE]

Holden version of MCM

[@jarrynsmith]

ExisTdopE its a little more serious?

[@danielbrealey2924]

How's about let's not and say we did... I don't know how much of a cross over there is. I personally think the MCM guys are chumps. I'm surprised Hotrod (Roadkill) magazine did anything with them. MCM is more for people who shop at Autobahn, Street Machine is more for people that shop at Summit Racing or VPW/Speed Pro/Rocket Industries. Two VERY different groups of people

[@ExisTdopE]

you need a mix of serous and entertaining tho this is it.

[@wobblysauce]

To change the washer fluid.. first we got to jack it up.

[@Hayden-bs3oz]

Streetcar? $5 says it has chassis connectors..

[@snotfg]

not a redback

[@kingpoooooo]

Thank you!

[@JoblessGamer]

what was that? tell my misses im banning this door harder then her?

[@jakemauger1409]

lows 7's easy!

[@finrennard3402]

Why not start with a dunger instead of destroying a piece of history?

[@kiqnkf3201]

I am gonna guess 1627kg race weight.

[@jarrynsmith]

kiqnkf 1450kg

[@kiqnkf3201]

:) sweet. see how we go

[@blakewebster6786]

420 like wow

[@davidbaker8721]

Ok

[@andrewwilson8317]

Don't do any bodywork on it,keep the garden shed look with a killer motor and spend every day smiling!

[@danielbrealey2924]

That's what I was thinking too. It just leaves more money for modifications

[@muggs8693]

Daniel Brealey mate they don't need more money for mods, it has the best of the best in it, this car will be one of the fastest ls street cars if not fastest but will look Micky mouse at the same time.

[@-DEATHSTROKE]

VN is still the lightest commodore 😑

[@Benjames885]

DEATHSTROKE even a Executive VN is around the 1350kg mark, so no it’s not

[@chillpill4936]

bogan fest. Holden's everywhere

[@yacobmarkatri8568]

Should have slammed it on Tarmacs and Dailey it.
