I've got a vu ss fifty ute collecting dust in the garage. Will be holding onto it for a long time with the price of v8’s now I no if I sell it I’ll be hard pressed to afford another one.

picked it up on gumtree for 4K a few years back dropped another 3k on a tranny rebuild was going to cam the fuck out of it, glad I didn’t now could get an easy 20k now for it but I rekon another 10 years might be 50k only made 500 of them.

fuck yeah mate vb or vh ?
Good score, its hard to find deals like that today. If only we could turn back the clock, in the 90's i was paddock bashing and jumping early Commodores that are now pulling $40k. I'd be sitting in a beach front mansion smoking cigars now if i stuck them all in a barn back then lol.

Yes you will regret it if you sell it now, i go through phases of wanting to sell mine too then i slap myself. It's a VK with a 355, TH400 and Ford 9" diff.

I had a vh slx and a hk premier i should never have parted with
Least i kept the old hz in the shed kids love going for a cruise in it View attachment 4895830
Really nice mate, rare colour is it the original paint? Is it called something like opal blue? I had a VK in a similar colour years ago which was called coral blue.

Cavemans seeds came thru for me, and suprised that their PO Box on the back of the envelope was only a hundred K'sfrom where I live.. Go figure. ILGM was also posted from Australia.
Seed City, (UK) has to be my best experience so far, (apart from Jungle Jim). Less than 4 weeks from start to finish, and my first experience of professional packaging. I didn't even bother to check the tracking as I thought.... Then they arrived..

Good to see Seed City are still on point, you get decent freebies with them at least! Nice to be able to choose and get the 10% off!

Seed City was recommended here, and at the time, I had never ever heard of Royal Queen seeds.
That question is sort of like going to a business I supply, purchasing a bag of Wasabi and Seaweed Macadamias, and then some ?? asks, why did not you buy from BBNRC direct? Disregarding the importation problems. Really? Obviously you only buy from Costco.

Think you get sick of saying it. It's all good being on a Canadian website, talking shit. Ordering seed from os is sorta good. OS has your details, not local.

Now when some local grub gets done locally for selling (reselling) likely hemp seeds, at best bush weed or hermi ridden crap? You spend 120 days growing crap? Yeah?

Rozzas gunna check their computer? Yeah? You fuckin bet.

What happens then?

Trust me fellah, take your chances with Customs. Worst that could happen is that the beans don't turn up.

Always to a safe address. Nobody that has issues with growing, warrants etc. Good luck,

Fucking matrid airport taking 10 years to process my order through.
It’s waiting for a plane. There’s very limited flights into the country for mail to travel on. You just gotta wait for it to get a plane. I’ve had orders from attitude sit at the airport for 2 weeks and others sit for 3 days. I’ve also had 2 orders arrive within a day of each other on separate planes even though they where ordered at the same time.

They need more planes a ship will get them here quicker the way things are going.
