do you still own the green one on your profile picture sandman44?

No sold the green HJ 4 years ago. I was moving intersate and thought I would just sell it and buy another, but a HX or HZ just because I liked the stripes better, that's why the green one didn't have the stripes. I have spent every chance I can since trying to find one, it only took about 2 weeks before I wished I had never sold it, it was XX7 L31 M21 and all origional other than the colour and the front spoiler.
I will by a origional green SANDMAN van oneday, but I will settle for what I have got for now, it will keep me busy.

thats such an awesome van i would be happy with that too! that green one with 5L would be worth a mint what was the original colour? finding an l31 now is impossible

it was Deauville Blue Metalic, I have never been a fan of metalics on a SANDMAN. The yellow HX I just bought is origionaly Bordeaux Metalic, I would love to paint it green, but I think I will go for origional. I will have to also change the prem front for a single headlight front, replace the 253 in it with a 308 as the plates are L31, get some GTS wheels and remove the sunroof... and some other bits.
