Holden Commodore VF
by webby Sun 08 Sep 2019, 3:42 am
The last Australian built Holden.
This was a race car in our $upercar series. I've taken it back to a road car.
Diecast reduced to component level, missing a headlight lens
.
I had to fill the rear wing mounts & roof air intake, and it needs some touch-ups. Otherwise it's progressing nicely.
Interior next, using some Camaro seats, the widened original dash and door cards.

Interior progress. Smoothing out the race car floor and adding some depth to the door cars. Dash has been widened too.

Nice work Chris, Is it feasible to make a lens with glue and glaze?

Not sure, Gaz. I have the same car in its original form, where headlights are covered with decals. I might use it as a donor and then make one that I can cover with decals.

It was sad to hear that Ford and Holden shut up shop down under.
Some mad cars were built back in the day.
The first Torano was a Vauxhall Viva, stretched a bit for a big 6 cylinder engine, called a GTR XU-1.
