We know the feeling Will.co....thankfully Absinth verified it last year when he saw it at the all holden day, but we found original blackouts underneath the paint which we scratched off prior to soda blasting...its a pity all the ID plates didn't have a Sandman stamp on them be it xx7 or another code...
Hope to see you next year at Van nats....

I don't care what anyone says! HQ Sandmans are the best looking of them all! I personally would always choose a HJ, but the HQ certainly has looks to kill especially in the right colour.
Funny how tastes change over the years. Back in 1980 I didn't like the HQ at all even though I had a couple, I didn't like the nose or the GTS dash, my favorite being HJ with the squarer nose, gts guards and great looking GTS dash.Originally Posted by HK1837
Now..... I really like the sweeping curves of the HQ nose, the HQ GTS flutes in the guards and I really like the look of the bright machined GTS dash. My favorite is still HJ though.
