1996 HSV VS Clubsport - Build No.1289 ... (SOLD)

Bought 8 years ago as a stock HSV VS Clubsport with 165,000 klms on the clock, the current owner decided to rectify a rear main seal leak and the project got a little out of hand. The VS Clubsport now runs a Supercharged 558 Hp V8 built by well known supercharger specialist engine builder Marks Workshop. All works have been engineered and approved by WA roads and the car is full WA registered. The HSV is now for sale from Perth, WA.

With in excess of $75,000 invested into this stunning Panther Mica HSV VS Clubsport and less than 10,000 klms driven since the full rebuild, the owner has decided on his next project and this special HSV is for sale.

This is a quality car that you will be proud to own. No expense has been spared in the build of this Clubby.

All mechanical works were completed by Marks Workshop Stroker Performance Engines and come with receipts for all works. There is also a engineering approval from WA roads.
