Here's a HJ Caprice that seems to have that console too. Can't see if the 8 track is there though.

That's the standard Caprice console, LE & SLE were built as the equivalent models, LE was virtually a 2 door Caprice (fitted with nearly every luxury option available) and SLE used Caprice model code 8WT as thus far my research has shown that only SLE's were built after production of the long wheelbase cars moved to Elizabeth after June 79. It looks as though Statesman/Caprice production ended in Mar 79 when Pagewood ceased making HZ's.

Did your Statesman get the Caprice console or was it put under the dash? Next question were they a factory or dealer option?

Would this have been in the useless pocket under the radio????

i have a magazine and there is an xy gt in it with an 8 track fitted and has the same knobs as the factory radio so it looks factory but doesnt say it is
