  • Hey guys!
    Welcome back to Jeff's Aussie 'Pro- Street' inspired VH SL/E project build.
    You've been asking, and we've heard you... so HERE IT IS! The 1st Gen Commodore is back on the channel and it's time to get things moving forward. This is a bucket list build, and there will be no bolt left untouched. We're going for a full rotisserie bare metal body restoration! But this body is hiding some secrets and surprises that we're yet to encounter...
    Check out the video! And leave us a comment with your feedback.

      Oh definitely! There wouldn't be many people who can say they did a build and had change left in the budget... but I can see this one blowing out way past the average yearly wage 😖😖😖
      That doesn't mean the build can't happen though, just means it takes a little bit longer 💪🏻 *Determination!*

      Absolutely! If this weren't teenage me's dream build I would certainly have a crack at the panel n paint aswell to save even more cheddar. But I want this to turn out better than brand new, so sometimes you just need to nut up and pay the man with the skills what he's worth.

    When you removed the chrome from around the the top of the door where the glass closes into.
    The horizontal curved part of the door and the vertical part.
    How did you do this? I’m needing to do this my self.
    Maybe a video, don’t won’t to damage mine when removing them from all four doors.
    Thanks

    • @TorqHub
      @TorqHub  Před 3 lety

      6:31 in the video mate. You can see we just used a flat blade screwdriver to gently pry it away from the door inch by inch. Was pretty nerve wracking as we were scared to bend it, but slowly does it.
