- 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.

“And it’s gonna cost a lot of money, Probably a lot more money then I can afford”
Every car build ever 😅
Facts
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!*
VH SLE! One of my favourites *drool*
That kind of donk would go well in a hatchback torana too... just sayin 😉😅
noice
Man that future Jeff is a sucker! Brilliant ep boys! Can’t wait to see the finished product and I bet the journey to get there is going to be bloody good as well!
FINALLY, can’t wait to see it all done 🤙🏻
Hell yeah. Finally some VH goodness
Now this VH resto is gonna be a good watch, awesome 😎
Very cool, go the VH👌
Bmw pyrite brown metallic 😍
Oof, that's a ripper colour.
I have 3 vh sl'e and a vk calias commodores in my shed. 2 v8's auto and 2 inline 6 auto. One of them is a peter Brock HDT mockup and the other v8 is modified, engine, suspension ect... from that time period. Not willing to sell any of it tho, sorry ;)
Hell yeah boys good to see you doing vh things and stuff 👌🤘👍🤣
This bloke got it 😉👌🏻😅
Going to be a good serious man
a fair bit of work as already taken place in the engine bay i can see!!!
You've got a keen eye 😉
Lookin forward to hearing that beast of an engine run!!!
I honestly dream about that day.
I know the feeling my dream car is in a similar state for more years than I care to mention
Yeah, this one has been waiting in line nearly 6 years to have it's turn. Now it's time to make a move!
They used good old fashion bos stick glue at The factory try reare spares for parts
Sick as bro
18V window motor doesn't fuck around 😃
super super keen to see how this one goes, I don't know what direction to go with my VH yet so should be good to get ideas. PS if your trimitic shifter is in good condition and you would like to offload it let me know.
VhSle.What a winner, one of my favourites, are you keeping the interior original, like dash, etc, and have the original badges and trims on it ? White, with the original colour interior..would be my choice, really looking forward to seeing this happen..big Simo wheels..
Gd shit Jeff awesome to see the build begin have been itching for this to happen 💪🏻🤤😍
You and us both Drew! Got a long road ahead of us haha.
@@TorqHub I can’t wait to see the progress on this build might even get stuck back into sorting my wagon out n finally get it on the road
My type brother
That’s not just any old window stick Jeff!! That’s an SL/E window stick , chuck it up on eBay and pay for half your build 😝😝😝
383 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
Man has a point! Very rare, only one on the market. No lowballs, I know what I've got.
Kinda hoping its gonna be painted a deep purple or something not on the lost from holden, but at the same time i also wanna see that 383 under a standard beige bonnet for the sleeper effect
Got little chance of keeping that carb under a standard bonnet with that intake I reckon! Haha. If I can make it happen I will, but not real interested in putting a chromoly K frame in it to make it happen
FYI, rare spares are releasing VH SLE tail lights
Yeah, then we'll see if they're any good or not, lol.
Good luck with the build. Could always tint the tail light if its got a few imperfections , save ya having to sell ya kidney to get a replacement.
Yeah unfortunately it's not the lens that's the issue, but more the plastic housing. But thanks for the thought 👌🏻
Hell yeah good one fellas be good to see this one finally kicking off, I know about the tail lights right, expensive hey. Hope you find something for a reasonable price tho
Yeah some people are just testing the market, but people are paying it which is the crazy part! Rare spares apparently have some in production, but we all know the real deal is the way to go.
@@TorqHub Yup extremely crazy right! nothing too much wrong with repo ones, go for it I say
Gonna be awesome, building a car in today’s world costs way too much, keep on saving where you can 👍
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.
rare spares for tail lights
When/If they finally produce a set... and if they're any good haha.
I started building a VH SL factory 4.2 4 speed....found parts and another shell...saved it to build another...this happened a few times now I have 12 early Commodores and building 8 , couple SL/E's ...I'm sick I need help :P
Good lord... part of me says you're insane, the other part is jealous you have the space for so many 🤣
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
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.
Good work. These projects take time, and $$$.
3 year build?
If I can get my ducks in a row it might be sooner than that, but there's no deadline. Just do it once, do it right!
Look for barn find
She won't look like a barn find anymore soon 😍
No LS no care hahaha
🤣
@@TorqHub 🥰😘
Man stripping the doors was by far my least favorite part. Especially when the old bailey channel goes rock hard
Agreed. Dash removal and door strip... gross.
@@TorqHub ahh yes the dash… luckily it’ll be easier to put in 😂
Especially since the heater box and A/C are going in the bin 🤣
@@TorqHub I might need to buy the blower motor off you if you’re chucking it out 😂 mines cactus
One day when I dig it out, if it works (and if I remember), I'll box it up and send it to you for nothing bud.
Just buy a decent original car. Sell that rust bucket, why waste your money.
