The good old HQ Statesman! The last word in luxury back in 72!
Most Kiwis over 50 would know someone who had one of these back in the day, and if you owned one back then you had really made it because you were driving Holdens absolute Limo Flagship!
This cool old Statesman is a really genuine old survivor, its pretty honest and very complete, with none of the usual butchery that most have now sadly suffered, with this example clearly having been in long term ownership, and treated pretty well over the decades.
The body appears pretty honest with no obvious signs of major past trauma, and the older patina paintwork is still quite presentable, with a decent shine still displayed from its neat bronze metallic finish.
The lively old 308 engine still performs very well, with nice smooth shifts through the gears, and over all the road manners of this classic Statesman make her a real pleasure to drive, confirming just why they were so popular back in their day.
The interior really tells the story of this neat old car, white cloth trim seldom survived the rigors of daily use, and at over 50 years of age this one certainly doesnt look like its had over five decades of punishment.
The bench front seat and column auto instead of the buckets and console mean you can comfortably seat six in this old cruiser making this the ideal family weekend wagon.
All the fruit of the day was ticked when this old girl was being ordered new, white brocades trim, electric windows, bumper over riders, grain patterned vinyl top, mud flaps and of course a tow bar! she got the lot!
A neat old car set off by a good old school set of Cragar SS alloys with white lettered tires, this HQ would have really cut a smart profile back in the day, and its still an impressive old car today.
Not a show stopping trophy car by any stretch, but its not $70k eithera few wee bumps lumps and stone chips are worn as badges of honour on what would make a great family cruiser for the local cars and coffee, and refreshingly its not so precious that you cant actually use and enjoy it, and there is a lot to be said for a car like that.
Call today for more info on this neat old Statesman, a lot of car for a very modest amount of money..
