Radio was an optional extra and there were several to choose from.
Dash fascia was machined finish (fishscale) only.
Inertia reel seatbelts were not optional.
Seats were vinyl only.
Console was standard in HQ Sandman.
You will need to post up your plate details to help ID it and a few pics would help also.

Thanks absinth for your info its good to Know radio had different option as my neighbour gave me an airchief but it is not the one with the push buttons.but on your info it should do the job. thanks again
If you want certified original seat belts talk to Seatbelt Solutions in Perth, only certified company in Australia to restore and re web original hardware as far as I know. Have a set with them atm, about $500 for complete rechrome and new webbing. They will come back with documentation so they pass registration.

Thanks for the belt info GNW. they are not cheap but a must have for period resto's
Hey Steve,
still the odd good find for HQ parts out there in the country, just need to be diligent and keep the eyes open. Sadly some of the wreckers here in SA seem to just let them rot, they should be stripping all the good bits and storing them.
