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.Originally Posted by hxbunny
Yeah, i just thought it was an S on the tag first look.
It is an S on the tag, i bet it purrrrrrsssss along Rhino
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.
Look closely, it may be a B. The numerals are the same as the rails so it has to be either a B or a mistake. I can understand mistakes on any digit except for the last one, the Acacia Ridge plant should never have got an S mixed with a B.
BHJ10949S is also a 1/75 or 2/75 number at the latest. BHJ10949B is a 3/75 number. I reckon if you pulled the plate off and cleaned it it'll be a B.
