Sad old van for sale

[HK1837]

What a heap of junk! Probably not worth saving even if it was a HQ Sandman, not without another shell.

I doubt there was hundreds of thousands put into that one. Look at the welds and the "fabricated" pieces . If you look close you can see the one piece tailgate - 2 tailgates attached together with 3 plates of steel that aren't evenly spaced apart. There must have been a bit of hiding some of that workmanship.

Maybe I'm just being picky cause I read StreetNeats coupe and panelvan builds start to finish the other day. Now that guy is a panelbeater.

I can't recall seeing van's with the higher roof bit, maybe I did, but can't remember. I did attend plenty of car show's back then.

im going to have to have a scour through my vanwheels mags and see if anything looks close

[Rolla]

I swear I've seen that van in a vanning magazine! :Chin:

[ambientgoat]

Wow, that is ready to return to the earth.

And here I am worried that with my welding I occasionally leave a pinhole or two...

I don't know if I like the welding where the rear bar was, or the heat warped lowered roof least.

Wow... just wow.

[HK1837]

It isn't a higher roof, it is a lower roof at the front. It has been chopped and lowered or a wagon piece has been welded on.

brought it yet AGRO?

No, but the thought did cross my mind.
I know of a number of people that are onto it though.

I remember seeing that van many years ago in magazines, murals were big back then 70's and the 80's. I have a photo I took somewhere of a cool wizard on the side on a cream coloured van at one of the Sydney Motor Shows will have to try and dig it out.

Would LOVE to see that one. (Bit of a WIZARD fan).

hj308, I remember the Wizard van. I saw it out at Warragamba Dam in the late 70's, when we had a gathering there once. Was very cool indeed.

Pics????
