    Saw this today ..... talking to the mechanic, its a gen XX7 HJ.....the tag rivets arent the large factory type......might be a rebody. He proceeds to tell me its a 'limited edition XX7'....no fluted guards and Brock running gear from factory...how much is true, your guess is as good as mine!! Cant see from the pics but it has a HZ front. 40K on the resto so far and by looking in the cargo area, its had a bloody hard life......and i mean hard....tradies van for sure!! Kinda felt sorry for it Quick peak at the engine and it has late model heads and a Gas Research straight LPG system......very smooth idle too!!!! Nice....but not for sale :( Owned by a police officer too!!
    Cant really tell with photos, but that colour is blinding!!!! Just awesome

    Only very early HJ's have large rivets.
    He's FOS regarding GTS no guards and Brock running gear - you are talking 1974-6, Brock did nothing with cars until the 80's.
