I never started a project topic before as I was never really intending on starting a project with Onyx but hay ho.. To summarize the VX had, 2.5 sets of billies, 3 heads, 2 engines, 1 crash :(

I like to remember her in the glory days! :D :wub: :wub: :wub:

So with a massive thanks for Mbez aka Marky mark mark and MellowYellow aka RayFace :P Investigation and collection was done on a white VX with a cracked head from usual plug issue :(

With a quick test drive as she was loosing coolant, she felt great :D So loaded up and the start of the 5 hour return trip had Begun! :o

Silver? I'd have said black?
Looking at sills by door shuts, and the patches under the roll hoop cover.
