Is that a Holden emblem? And is the rear spoiler missing?

yeah thats the holden emblem. i have done almost the full holden monaro conversion. and about a month after buying the car back in 04 I removed the spoiler and had the holes welded up. all I have to do to finish the holden conversion is change the air bag.

Has this problem actually started to appear, or is it just expected to appear in the future?

I have had this problem since I got my 04 back in 04. you also have to get used to how expensive every part is.

Are the parts available, just expensive? Or are there things you can't get?

the parts in my experience, always have to be ordered and they take a while to get shipped, and the parts are just plain expensive.

mine needs an a/c compressor because my car sat for a year and the bearing froze up and they want $600 for the a/c compressor. it also needs a starter which is running me $200 for a rebuilt."been waiting two weeks so far to get it."

but i still love the poo poo out of this car. but it is an hour away from me and I would rather ride my motorcycle being that I live in the city of Chicago and parking sucks.

this is mine when it was in good shape


this is how it sits today. its going to be forsale pretty soon, i got laid off and cannot afford rent a car payment and a motorcycle payment.

If it is and you want to sell your car, I'll trade you that front end for mine plus some cash?
