So when I have it I will be so glad, and it's original colour is green like my original HQ Sandman ute was. I don't think that was stamped with XX7 either.
Yes the ol XX7 debate, being fairly uneducated with these matters from what i have learnt there are a few around and its not the be all and end all, some would have you believe otherwise but in so saying that would mean that any Sandman without XX7 would not be able to be gauranteed...i bet theres alot of people who would disagree with this as would I!!

Can someone answer for me and pls excuse my ignorance but wasnt XX7 an option for tyres, what if that option wasnt requested, would there still be an XX7, Was the XX7 only that and just an option...not a requirement??

There will be someone gauranteed can answer this one for me!

Also what did the original seatbelts in a HQ look like?
Mainly i need to know about the clasps, were they plastic fantastic or the oldskool metal Holden ones with the Insignia of the lion on the button??
