Comments from the seller
1981 Holden VC Commodore 253 V8
Well presented VC Commodore running the 253 4.2 litre V8. The car presents very well for its age and drives extremely smoothly. It has had a number of tasteful upgrades completed by the previous owner and has been resprayed in Dark Grey Metallic.
Features and modifications
* 253 4.2 litre V8
* 3 inch stainless steel exhaust from the headers back
* Upgraded carburettor and fuelling setup
* Previously tuned with a future cam upgrade in mind
* Upgraded stereo system
* Open door respray in Dark Grey Metallic
* Mechanically very good
* Drives smoothly and presents well overall
The body is very presentable for a car of this age, although there are a few small dings and minor imperfections throughout, as you would expect from a 1981 vehicle.
Overall, this is a very tidy VC that looks great, sounds the part and is mechanically strong. A great cruiser as it sits, with plenty of potential for someone wanting to take it further.
Inspections welcome. Genuine enquiries only.
