HI
Can anyone help me....... Can you tell me if a HJ 11/95 Mod Kingswood Sandman, Melbourne built, have a Brisbne HX Chassis from factory or should the compliance plate match the chassis?

And, is the chain that holds the spare wheel, different on the Kingswood Sandman to the standard Kingswood hj ?

[Absinth]

Chassis has been replaced.... I take it it's a ute???

[ozbox]

yes chassis should match tag..no chain only wire but wheel holder is different shape..

Hi david welcome to the site!

Is/was it a ute because you mention Kingswood and the chassis and plate must match otherwise there has been a swap at some stage.

[davidhj]

yes it is a ute,

you've answered my question!

Thanks so much!

ok i thought by the off chance that beeing such a late hj model the assemblers may have thrown any thing at it

I take it you mean't 11-75 not 11-95. 11-75 is not late for HJ as the HJ run finished at the end of June 76.

Melbourne cars would have never received a Brisbane chassis and a Brisbane built body would not have gone to Melbourne for assembly. Even if a late run car got a newer model chassis it wouldn't be stamped with the newer model number.... IE HX stamped chassis on a HJ plated car.

haha, yes, sorry, meant 75, I forgot how old I was! im still getting the hang of this.
also, do you know if the pop rivits on the tags, aluminimum or steel? As they seem to have rusted on this one.

Thanks!
