Dazzler, I do appreciate the work. However, if it looks like a performance machine, it should go like a performance machine.

Another thing, that is a VT with VZ and VE mixed into it. And HSV embroided into the seats?? Its a V6 VT executive, thats all it will ever be. '

I don't for the life of me understand why some people waste skills and talent cross breeding differnt model cars.

I will agree the idea is different. Just fails for me.

Now lets

Im with Dazz, def win! drop a LS in it, wouldnt be that hard, or overly expensive either..

Thats an insane amount of work, bloke must of been really dedicated. But if Michael Jackson had been a car, this Commodore would of been him.

Not my cup of tea, but got to admit, he's done a better job of using LEDs in the front end than HSV did!

whats wrong with that? i think my EF interior is far superior then the factory NC items...

and IMO, BenJ has also done thins and improved his car far beyond what ford ever could

[DBourne]

that tarted up commo looks horrible!

In saying that, I can imagine a few people thinking "mmm my EB would look good as a BA GT"

My car has BA brakes as they are bigger then AU standard. Im silly for doing that? What about my E series fan belt cover as AU had them deleted? BA scuff plates?


That car is an epic win, only fail for me is the dash, and the motor, but thats easy changed. Even a TT kit on it would be sweet.

Massive Fail! Why go to all the effort to make an alright looking Holden look rediculously Ugly when VE's are so cheap!!

Its a fail because He has fitted the HSV stuff to a car that is not a HSV or having a enhanced engine. the same as anyone that fits a kit to any car (HSV or FPV) and lables it as such without having the engine to match.

Hmm... still has 'Holden' badge on nose (as opposed to HSV)

Kinda silly thing to say - given that your profile pic is a BA wagon with a non XT front bumper... ???

Thats a well executed custom, not really my cup of tea, but it's got a good flow to it. I've seen way worse commodore. To call it a fail is sorta immature

Mate that's like having a fat girlfriend because she has the mind of a supermodel.

Yes i agree....

[SSD-85]

Christ almighty, that guy would be making a major loss on that VT. The amount of effort that wouldve been needed to make that alone is enough to avoid "fail" status. Commode or not.

He wouldn't be the first bloke to dump loads of cash into a car that he'll never get back. I'm certainly guilty of that. I've never thought about resale when I've modded any of my cars. Just the enjoyment of the result. Then again, the mods I've done were always to improve the car not tacky stuff like this car has.

[Bushbasher]

All you guys bagging this blokes commy have completely ignored what I thought was the blindingly obvious. That would be the extremecustom.com.au sticker down the side of the thing which in all likelyhood is who/where the car belongs to and was built. It seems to me to be a rolling advertisement for their work and is probably being sold off to make room for the next one which makes it one big bad vomit inducing tax write off, hahahaha.

Everyones an individual and eveyone has the right to cutomise (sodomise?) their property however they see fit. Instead of being derided and put down this gentlemen should praised and lauded for his unwaivering determination to express his feminine side with such individuality and flair. So in the end its not a fail.........its just crap.

[nstg8a]

i actually quite like it. if it had a ls1 id love it...

That Hyundai Tiburon ......... words fail me.

I'm glad it's in America instead of here on a road I could be on.

[martinijosh]

I was in a work car, no way I'd leave part of a dodgy rego sticker like that in my own car!

[huggiebear]

i have seen that cow car around morayfield a few years back.. used see it daily
