    for looks i go sandman way infront then sundowner and then the drifter (although i would like to get drifter ute) . the public of the day must have seen it the same as sandmans are not hard to find, sundowners and drifters are real scarce particually in the v8.(maybe they all rusted away). anyway, i want to get all 4(sandman ute, van and the sundowner, drifter at a show. just imagine how good the sandman(probably saddle tan) will look parked between the other two. i wonder how many years its been between all 3 makes parked together?might even throw the sandman overlander in there as well !!!!

    Here are some pics from the vic state van titles last year. We had a Drifter, my HQ (not a sandman obviously) and a sundowner lined up, I just wish I got a shot of them all together:

    The Drifter is super neat, a very good looking van:

    There was actually a couple of sundowners there:

    And here is the two sandmans for balance!

    And for something different, a VE Sandman!

    There was actually another drifter there earlier in the day but I missed getting a shot of it...

    The Westside Vanners have a few Sandmans between them, they should be going. Check out their vids on youtube:





    You should look them up if you live over there, seem like a great bunch of guys and girls, I know I would if I was over there! They have their group set up on facebook.
