The old mans Caprice

[Sphector89]

Hey all i rarely come to this bit of the forum because i dislike most commys before the VX minus VL, VK etc. But ive always had a soft spot for Vs Statesmans, I think they look purely EPIC, holden did a fine job designing the body and is one of the best looking shapes ever imo. So this is our old Caprice that we had for probably 15 years, had done over 350,000k's lol. Was a 5lt with full leather interior and all the options i think, duel fuel, previous owner had it lowered with 18" monaro rims, the side skirts were color matched to the rest so it looked epic, big exhaust which sounded amazing and it is the reason i love cars today! unfortunately is was destroyed in a rear end collision which resulted the car being 1 foot shorter at each end sad but it had a good life doing mostly highway k's to and from the Riverland and Victoria. Anyway time for pics!

Cheers guys! I reckon one day I will buy a Statesman and make it look exactly the same dad would love that
