Overview

A 1979 Holden Commodore VB four-door sedan finished in brown with a tan cloth interior. The vehicle is fitted with an inline six-cylinder engine and an automatic transmission with a column-mounted gear selector visible on the centre console.

The interior features tan cloth bench-style front and rear seats, a tan dashboard with central air vents, an aftermarket cassette head unit, and a three-spoke steering wheel. The instrument cluster includes an analogue speedometer reading in km/h and an analogue temperature gauge. A spare steel wheel is located in the boot. A dealer sticker reading "Newman Taringa" is affixed to the inside of the boot lid.

The exterior paintwork shows fading and oxidation across the roof and upper panels. Surface rust is present on the lower rear quarter panels on both sides, the lower front guards, the boot lid edges, and the rear bumper bar. Rust is also visible on the driver side front door hinge area and the front passenger door sill. The lower rear body panels behind the rear wheels on both sides show rust and bubbling. The steel wheels show corrosion and the tyres appear aged with limited tread remaining.

The engine bay shows rust on the inner panels and strut towers on both sides, with cobwebs and debris accumulated around the engine. The steering wheel is heavily worn and discoloured with a rough, deteriorated surface. The front seat fabric is worn and soiled. The headliner appears to be sagging at the edges. The boot floor shows corrosion, and the spare steel wheel shows heavy corrosion. The windscreen wiper arms show corrosion.
