    A check for full headlining attachment points and interior light door switches should just about confirm it. I'm about 99% sure it is.

    BUT, (I don't mean to be at all derogatory) it is probably the worst Sandman of the lot, being a 6cyl HX in Durham beige. Basically a baseline Sandman in baby p00 colour. The best thing for it is to make it what you want, don't get hung up too much on originality as it will be easy to over-capitalise on it trying to make it too original. It looks like it has already been painted in a more palatable colour (me saying that about what appears to be Hothouse just tells you how awful Durham beige is (I detest Hothouse Green! Others love it)). I'd just clean it up, whack in a V8 and enjoy!

    Firstly i would like to say thank you for welcoming me to the site. To answer your question HK1837 yes at some point it had a full headlining as the attachment points are still there, and it also has the interior door light switches. It is my intention to pop in a V8 just not sure if i will go Chev or Holden. Color wise i am not sure what i will do yet, as i dont like the color it is at the moment. Any way it is a blank canvass ready for some brush strokes. Regards Carlo

    thank you for the info HK1837. i think i will definitely run with an V8 and i would like to make it a sandman as well with all the decals. i will try and do the majority of the work myself, as its not the first van i have rebuilt albeit many many moons ago. Carlo
