    according to Australian Muscle Car 55.... the red HJ van belonged to a 3rd year apprentice who worked at Graf-X, the company commissioned to make the cars, he lent them the van in return for some art work to be put on it...

    It has a gts dash and bucket seats as can be seen in the movie. As far as I can see its all speculation afetr that. Without seeing tags that is.
