AllTorque Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Oh boy. I had a WB ute and always swooned over the statesman. The last of HQ based Holdens before they went all commonwhore. Such luxury. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr.wylde Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Its Low enough already. I live down a gravel road and my driveway is bumpy as shit (country living) I lowered my kingswood ute years ago this sits as low as my lowered ute and its factory the most it might see is a set of cragars i have stashed away at my mums house in welly and some eagers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KKtrips Posted September 4, 2014 Author Share Posted September 4, 2014 Just saw it's got a 308 in it, I thought these badboys had the Chev in them. Or were there both options? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr.wylde Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 the only option was the 308 but the earlier ones have the TH350 auto 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Threeonthetree Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Ahh, the Statesman from Palmy. I've had this saved on my watchlist for aaaages and managed to perve at it in person when I was last in Palmerston North. Great to see another old Holden on OS and what a Holden at that! I hope you cruise through Oamaru at twenty five miles an hour with a Max Merritt & The Meteors tape playing through the luxurious sound system, while you laze back in your sheepskin lined seat. Such elegance. I love it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
