Info about this vehicle:

1985 Holden VK Commodore SS Tribute - White - 179,684km - 4.9L V8, Automatic, HDT Wheels (Repaired Write-Off)
A 1985 Holden VK Commodore four-door sedan presented as a VK SS Tribute, finished in white. Rear-wheel drive, powered by a 4.9-litre V8 petrol engine paired with an automatic transmission. Odometer indicating 179,684 kilometres. Seating for five. This vehicle is a repaired write-off (NSW, inspected 6 March 2003).
Description
The VK Commodore SS is one of the most recognisable Holdens of the 1980s, and this example has been built as a tribute to that spec. It wears the full SS front bumper and air dam, the bonnet with the signature power bulge, SS badges on the front guards and boot lid, HDT-style side skirts, and a rear boot spoiler. The build plate confirms a factory V8 VK with the L14 engine code (5.0L/308ci) and M40 three-speed automatic, so the V8 drivetrain is factory-original to the car. The vendor describes it as an "SS Tribute" and notes the car was originally a six-cylinder, though the build plate data suggests otherwise. Buyers should verify the car's specification history for themselves.
The white paint presents cleanly with good gloss and consistent colour across all panels. Body lines are straight, panel gaps are even, and there is no obvious evidence of poorly executed repairs visible from exterior angles. HDT 16x7-inch alloy wheels are fitted all round. Inside, the steel blue velour interior is original and complete. The front bucket seats show age-appropriate wear and fading but no tears. The dashboard is intact with no major cracks, which is notable for a VK. An aftermarket HDT steering wheel and aftermarket stereo have been fitted. The boot is tidy with a full-size spare.
This is a repaired write-off (NSW, inspected March 2003). Some states and territories have varying rules regarding re-registration of inspected written-off vehicles, so buyers should check with their local transport authority before bidding. That disclosure aside, the car presents very well for what it is, a V8 VK in SS trim with HDT wheels and a clean, straight body. At the current price point, it offers a lot of car for the money for someone comfortable with the write-off history.
