Yes looks good just a few cosmetic things could be touched up.
The 253 can go quite well for a small v8 but it would have to be quite a monster to justify the 800cfm carb.
Should drive well as the HZ chassis had the better steering geometry (RTS) than the HQ, HJ & HX.
I'd have it if I had the space and cash.

Looks like it could have a horror story underneath with the way the paint has bubbled.........

A lot of money for what looks like a FE Ventora with serious hidden rust.

Oh yeah, the Statesman, WB had the one piece light.VGVIP wrote:Still the way it is in the 2nd pic.
Front is HJ HX HZ premier or statesman the 4 headlight fronts (all the same panels).
WB were a different set of panels again for the front clip.
Could bore you with more details. There are lots of subtle changes from factory HQ.

Yep.
That one was a base model HQ Monaro (2 head lights) with a 202 ci six and a duck tail spoiler as was fitted to the later HX 2 door. Oh and a rocket up its arse for the crash scene.
Mine started life as the HQ LS Monaro (4 headlights and higher trim level) also a six pot.
