Well, somehow this ended up in my driveway. 1988 Laurel Medalist Turbo, VG20ET, and so much dodginess....

Cost me not very bloody much, 125,000km and a red velour interior to die for. Why? Who knows. But I like it. Plans are to run the VG20 into the ground, and then look into options involving an extra turbo, and a little extra poke. Immediate plans are for an RACQ 50 year membership badge, with a bowls hat on the rear parcel shelf. I've already made several people with Commodores cry....

Because that car would most probably be sent to scrap in japan.

theres one the same as this somewhere in my suburb, its a pre c33 medalist but im pretty certain its non turbo. pillarless is cool, would be hot as painted black with some f**k off vip wheels.

Maybe eventually! At the moment it's just basic transport. With 125,000km, I figure I have at least 50,000km of turbo left.

If it goes boom, then possibly black/18 inch wheels/VG30DETT. Should be a fairly straightforward conversion, and give me a little more power. Sort of ruins the sleeper appeal though! And my MR2 and bike currently fill the garage, so I'd have to sort that out before I spend a fortune on new paint.

Side shot when I find wherever the hell I left my camera. Dodgy front pic should keep you amused until then. I really need to find an empty field somewhere to get some proper angles.
