Currently has a 253 and a 4 speed.

Dewalt, We bought a HX ute recently, it sounds as though it is in similar condition, and we paid $6300. It was unregistered, but going we drove it home from Goulburn, to Parkes, and it ran well, it is Mandarin Red with 18V trim.

Cheers

Antelope with Chamois/black trim probably won't be that popular BUT it is a 308 TH400 originally (and probably LSD, air and steer too). If the body is good it'd have to be worth somewhere between $6k and $8k, maybe closer to $6k.

Hmm, I value it somewhere between $1 and $25000. It is impossible to tell without pictures and knowing if the chassis matches the tags.

[HK1837]

True. I'm assuming it all matches and the body is good but work still needed. It'll never be worth much higher than low-mid teens though as the original driveline is gone.

Thanks for the replies everyone, i was to purchase it i would return it to a 308 with a t400, is there any way of knowing the original engine number that would have been in this ute?

Send me all the vehicle details off the ID plates and i'll see what I can find or estimate for you.

NOT a Sandman. It is a Kingswood, has to be a Holden in HX to be a Sandman. Kingswood Sandman finished at the end of HJ.
