yeh wa going to ask how does it look sad, yes its dirty cars been sitting for a year, missing parts are in the boot as im working on the engine.








body is a little ruff, interior is mint but too over the top damn lights for everrthing and too many mirrors,engine isnt running atm but have ordered new dizzy,cap,leads,rotor,coil and igniton control module...

 

yeh im not sure if ill keep it two tone with the group a kit but plenty of time to decide on paint scheme n kits consentrating on getting it on the road again.

well i didnt really pay for it, my misses swapped her vs excec sedan for it and gave it to me and i gave her my sl/e lol so you could see it as i/we payed 2g for it lol or youll have to wait n see how much she sells the sl/e for to determine how much it cost me..

apparently brand new driveline well its done 25 thousand kays which is ment to be a come racing stroker yet to be confirmed but either way it dont bother me as its something ive always wanted

 

yeh the radiator shroud is actully missing from what i can see it had a cold air intake fitted instead lol, yeh i dont enjoy looking at something in front of the motor and then my hand and fingers going clunk clunk clunk clunk lol.

actually i was showing the misses something on my vh sl/e which had a shroud on it and then she went to point at it and clunk clunk clunk for a few secs lol i was like wat the hell would you do that for haha she reckons ohwell it didnt hurt haha

 

cant it so not a practicle family car, the stato will be the fun/occasional family car, n the sl/e will purchase a wagon so we can have the dickie seats fitted into the rear (family of 6 soon)

 

yeh but the two tone would have to stay the way it is not half way up the doors like a calias, so if the kit was changed the car would all be one colour, if i redo it two tone it will be the same kit with the addition of the front lip and replace the foggies that were stolen before i picked it up (bloke fitted them to his mates stato)

 

yeh its got a lip kit on it aswell as its a caprice its got the rear lip, sideskirts, and a sv90 rear spoiler, all i need to find is the front lip to siot fog lights (pritty sure its differnt to ss)

but yes the colour combo is awsome and i reckon not very common as i dont think ive seen too many around like this

 

this is the front lip i need then it will resemble an sv90 except colour

 

and i just found out ssv sell them

Sydney Special Vehicles: For Car Body Kits, HSV Parts, Mag Wheels, Tail Lights, Bonnet Scoops and More

 

yeh im missing the drivers and front gaurd lower moulds, not sure how easy it is going to be to find some of them.

i know the fibreglass ones aint going to be as good/forgiving as the geniune ones but thats all i can find atm so it will have to do.

Leebo, you could of gotten a s2 statesman thats when they introduced a v6 as an option..

lol i gotta stop calling it a statesman its a CAPRICE lol
