G'day. So back in November I phoned up my mate Murph and asked him to be on the lookout for a VT-VX going for well as I wanted to get something a bit bigger then the rolla I had. Instead get a call from him saying meet me, and have him speed down to Pooraka to show me this VS Statesman.
Seeing it straight away I fell for it and (foolishly) bought the Statesman.
- Supercharged V6.
- 18" Alloys
- Clean interior
- Tow Bar
- All wiring done for Subs
Was coming to the point where I had enough money to fix the problems with the engine and had booked it in, later that day the car engine blew!
Have taken it into Rhemac at Willaston and so far am quite proud of the service they have offered so far, even though the bill is going to be big.
What is damaged/ Needed to be replaced:
- Cracked Exhaust Manifolds
- Radiator
- Heads needed work (valves weren't sitting right) rockers etc etc.
- Pulleys and belts within next few months
So I'm currently having all of it fixed can't wait to get it back (driving a rodeo ute at the moment :P )
Future plans include:
- Upgrade sound System
- Replace boot and have complete respray in same colour.
- Get the wheels welded up as I believe the previous owner played hit n' miss with gutters.
- Thin redwalls on the tyres and leave it as is.
