    More old school Vauxhall madness







    1968 Vauxhall Viva Estate pro streeter. Unfinished project (not mine!). Up for £2800 as is if anyone's interested.

    More than a weekend's work to finish it though...

    No sh*t . But does it come with them, and what exactly. Not that I'm really in a position to buy, but just interested.

    Re: More old school Vauxhall madness

    I think the motor thats in there is just wedged in there to stop it rolling away.

    I think at this stage in the project its fair to say you could install pretty much any engine and transmission. Its up at Unique Customs now but a chap I vaguely know had it a while back and I think he had a spare small block Chevy which could have been destined for this car.

    Only details I have are as follows:

    Viva HB Estate. Box and tube chassis, CDS tube, SFI Legal. Roll cage has been TIG welded. Centre line wheels, 14 x 15 rears, fitted with new mickey's, 3.5 x 15 fronts - 4 stud Viva pattern. Isaacs narrowed 9 inch axle and ladder bars. Narrowed 31 spline shafts. Stock centre section. Leda coilovers. Narrowed Viva front suspension, fibreglass bonnet, wings and front panel. Extended rear arches, new outer sills. Rolls and steers but needs loads of finishing.

    Hi, do you still have any pictures of this HB Estate? The pictures did not display on this forum.

    Thanks Bob
