Interesting read guy's, just wondering what your thoughts are on these tags ?. Never been removed from the Van, 3 registered owners, about 60,000 kms from new. Is it still a Sandman no matter what ?.

Cheers

Not sure what you're asking there Rhino. It's got XX7 on the plate and the chassis number matches the other plate so it is and always has been a Sandman. (unless I'm not seeing some restamped chassis numbers or something)

That is the first 1895-60V (Claret with Chamois trim) Sandman I have recorded. Nice one. The other three are black trim (19V).

Does the letter at the end of the chassis number being different mean anything ?

Different to what? The chassis number and the number on the ADR plate look the same to me: BHJ10949B.

the letter at the front has nothing to do with the letter at the end
letter at front = series revision.. eg WB's ran for 5 years and start AWB,BWB, CWB,DWB and EWB,

the letter at the end represent the factory, A Adel, B brisbane, M melb etc


so a chassis with EWB12345A is an adelaide built WB that was probably built 1984...

is this what you meant HXbunny?

yep the letter of the tag is Sydney, but it's a xx7 with a brisbane chassis no.
