    I just got rid of mine. 176K on the mint factory fitted GTS dash. 253 replaced with a 350. Pretty sure I'll regret it later but sold it to a mate who tends to sell projects once he's finished them so good chance I'll get it back in a better state than before.

    Your's looks pretty bloody good though Buck. I'll keep an eye out for it down on the border when visiting the out-laws.

    yeah not to keen on the 12 slotters, was thinking about gts rims, but i think a set of 8 inch hotwires with bf goodrich ta will be going on.
    mind you i did spy a set of vectras (same as dukes of hazzards rims) at a sawp meet, dont mind those either, but first of all its booked in for a full front end suspension rebuild for rwc only still drives perfectly. and bearings in the gearbox.

    What year were these available as an option? Was it only an option in the Kingswood or also the base (commercial?)?

    I think they were optional on all WB except tonner. Look like Gemini, Torana and Commodore SL/E rims but 14".
