My 94 Stateman (Styled as a Grange replica).
The end goal for the car was to have a 90's spec period correct Street machine style cruiser. I wanted to use parts that were popular in the commodore scene when the car was new. (E.g B&M shifter, gauges, aftermarket cassette deck, classic style simmons, cammed n/a engine)
