Hi any of you guys go to damaged cars often? I curious as to the price bracket that fuelinjected 5L commodoresgo for. More interested in VP-VT models with no damage to the engine. Headons are ok aslong as engine block is not stuffe. Any ideas on prices?

sometimes depends on the state your in and also wether the bigheads are running each other up...1500 to 4000 is what they are still going for..i actually find its cheaper buying privately,every now and then i win one at the right price at auction...rollov Edited by user Tuesday, 21 March 2006 1:08:20 AM(UTC)

you can buy decent Vn-Vp models for $3000 with a V8. I was hoping they would be around the $1000 mark for a writen off VN-VP.Wishfull thinking i guess

About $1500 for a VN/VP V8 auto. I knocked back a complete HSV enhanced VN SS manual the other day for $2200, registered and going. It was a 180kW unit too. A dude at work just sold a very nice VN SS auto for $3400, excellent condition with 12 months NSW |

$1500 written off. Both SS's were running and registered. The cheaper one had some mechanical problem (not sure what) and had rough paint - the dearer one was mickey mouse bar a bit of faded paint. |
