GTEPETE 355 Posted April 14, 2020 Author Share Posted April 14, 2020 Vauxhall also experimented with 327 Chevy V8s fitted to Vauxhall Ventora FDs. Two were built, my friend owned one...it was a beast... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sutty2006 887 Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 The last V8 diplomat I saw for sale in the UK got butchered for its engine for a bloody chevette. What a waste. Proper rare car. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
