    b-rock that looks very good! Bucket seats, M21, the date is within Sandman range and it's a Belmont Van!

    I believe Byron is away but may pop in when he has net access, however in the meantime catch up with Wilco he has a June 74 HQ Sandman and I'm sure you can share some stories!

    I'd bet my lefty it is...... Does it have the console mount between the seats, GTS dash-guards etc??? It's the same as my old HQ Sandman... Barbados green with black interior but mine was a 202 4sp.

    Great find and a great colour.....

    Awesome find mate sounds like we have another Qer to the familia.

    You have come to the right place for help if you want it that's for sure, check my thread and see how much people offered when I first came on board.

    Between the oracle Byron and the rest of the crew here there isn't much they can't help you with.

    I would love to see some pics of the elusive beast.

    Congrats on a nice van either way.

    I agree with Sean. Look for console evidence. If it has that it'll be one.

    That and a few others things are how Byron helped me verify mine. What a process that was eh Byron. Lol

    I have all the stuff you need to figure this out so the help check your messages and get in touch with me and I'll send it all through to ya.
