    Anyone help with these possible HJ Sandman numbers?

    Hi, wondering if anyone could help with identy of another van that i have just bought.Possible Sandman or nicely optioned van!


    I.D Plate

    Model HJ8WM70
    Body 159601 A
    Trim 2214 -60V
    Paint 568-15991
    L31 M41 GU7


    Complience Plate

    8/75 BHJ 30498S
    GVW 2200 Seating 2


    Body I.D Plate

    8M70TEH861500J


    It has matching chassis number but has a LH - LX Torana 253 with Trimatic fitted on gas.

    The body has the console brackets,full headlining clips at the back, original GTS guards, dash and steering wheel. Has roof rack slats on top and two windows either side.

    Unfortunately the body is a bit rough with about 10 different coats of paint on it and rust showing in places but it may be worth doing up.
    Enjoying driving it for now and repairing faults as i go!
    Thanks for a great site and any info would be greatly appreciated.
    I asked for some info on my HZ van here a while back and received a couple of replies,very handy,thankyou.
    Cheers John

    Thanks Jen, (where's the red faced smiley?) I was rather facetiously suggesting that this combo was the best Sandman combination rather the positively id'ing the vehicle in question. Sean or Byron are the men for that , I'm here learning like everyone else.

    Given all that there is a fair chance it is given the combo
