the middle two have calais in their name...is that right? the picture of the rear shows the number plate is mounted at the bottom by the tow bar rather than between the tail lights. doesnt that make it a statesman/caprice?

If you look at the guard flutes and front grill it looks to be the Statesman as well as the guard flutes are higher as on the uncamoflauged pics compared to the lower flutes on the Commodores.... Good spot man with the number plate though, I didnt take any notice

Yeah as soon as I saw those pics I knew the middle two were the Statesman/Caprice... Longer Wheel Base, different C pilar setup and the number plate location are all dead give aways...

I'd guess the red one is definitely the SS replacement.

The uncamouflaged pics will prolly not get printed because the magazine would leave themselves out of favour with holden, I thought those uncamou'd pics were taken at Lang lang which is on private property, which means if the photographer did give permission for their publishing that the magazine could be sued. The internet is more of a "free for all"
