1982 Holden Commodore VH SL/X review from Australia and New Zealand
"A good looking run around until the 'gunner' car is running"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission slipped badly, new transmission.
Carburettor had major flat spot, so I rebuilt it.
Panhard Rod broken, replaced it.
Tyres wear out too quickly.
General comments?
New paint job.
New interior.
New stereo.
SL/E look-a-like.
Wheels spin very well (according to my audience)
