OTHER INFO:
1996 VS Commodure Ute, 3.8L V6 with 5-Speed T5 manual Gearbox.
Bench Seat
Air Con
VX SS Rims 17" with Falken ZE Series Tyres (234/45) bought December 2011.
VE SS 322mm Front Brakes. Slotted and Dimpled rotors all round with Bendix CT Pads
Pioner MP3 Head unit
Dual Batteries with 4 X 12v sockets in tray, great for lights, fridge etc.
Standard Bumper Bar will be fitted.
Things I know it needs for a RWC:
Drivers Seat belt (Slight fraying)
Front Windscreen (A few chips in current one)
Horn - The pin that rubs on the steering wheel contact is worn, piss easy job to replace just havent had time with work to source the pin.
I'm honestly not sure if the Brakes would pass as they are technically "Modified" I do have the Stock calipers, but Rotors and Pads would need to be sourced if they had to come off (Stupid in my opinion as these are far better than factory brakes).
Things I know it needs to continue being a good ute:
Flywheel and Clutch - The flywheel is warped and can be noticed when the car is warm (City driving), Replacement flywheel is about $540, and would need a new clutch as well to ensure it was done properly (Excedy Standard Clutch $280
Rear Shockers and Springs - They handle fine aslong as there isnt much of a load in the tray. KYB Shocks $89 each, and King Springs $135 pair.
Roof Lining - Current one is sagging, and been stappled. I have a spare one I will recover and hopefully install prior to sale, A spare card will be supplied, and a VZ Calais interior light/sunglasses holder as well and you can use your imagination or throw it in the bin.
I have had the car for about 130,000km's, in that time its been relatively faultless apart from regular servicing nothing major has broken. I used it primarily for Highway Country driving, it hasn't had a hard life, and can't see why you wouldnt get a another 100 or more thousand Km's out of it with regular servicing. I'll even throw in 5 or so Spare Genuine oil filters.
Extra's - For an extra $500 I will throw in:
5 Post Bullbar with 3" Tubing.
Side Skirts with Clearance Lights
FlexiGlass Deluxe Canopy (One sliding & One Pull out window, and inside Carpeted.)
