    The chassis number must match the number on the ADR plate.

    it may be food for thought but it still isnt backing anything you say regarding legal identities...
    as a motor dealer i receive stuff from fair trading regarding cars etc....here is a link to the new securities register which clearly states that if you do not use the vin or chassis number you will not get a correct search..it even states that number plate or engine numbers are irrelevent to the search which makes the chassis number the identity..this is an australian government document for the entire country not just one state..POINT is proven...chassis number is the identity of the vehicle..nothing else matters..

    so without the original tags its no longer a sandman, which means the tags are what determines sandman or not?

    If you buy a full original numbers genuine sandman, then during the restoration, the block gets decked and you loose the engine number. You smooth out the chasis and loose the chasis number. Then you find out the painter lost the ID plates while he was takeing rust off the cowl. Is it still a sandman? yes. Is anyone going to listen to your story and pay sandman money if/when you want to sell it? no.

    wow
    seems a lot like the torana forum here..change a few names ect and i be home
    one thing for sure is that there are some very passionate and knowledgable people on this site about there beloved sandman van and utes,same happens at the torana forum to, but were all GMH lovers sharing a common bond be it monaros, sandmans or toranas and we dont like the idea of your chassis number being wrong and not matching ya tags!!!! to me a car that does not match is worth a shitload of coin less than a full matching car,van,or ute.I think all of you should go out and buy uniqe cars mag for that feature of re chassis, LONG LIVE THE MATCHING NUMBER CARS!!!! and the wanttobe's can forever live in our shadows....
    cheers and thanks for the entertaining thread
