    I have bought myself an XD Van, factory 302, c10 Auto, 9 inch LSD with disc brakes, on gas, tailgates, S-Pack dash etc. Ill have to check the plates, the owner hinted that it may be a Sundowner, but he wasnt sure.

    Definitely worth checking out Rico, not many around. They were built in far less number's than the Sandman.

    Yeah even if its not a Sundowner, I havent paid massive money for it, itll still be a nice cruiser. Any van saved is a good thing in my book, Holden Ford or Valiant. Doesnt have to be a Sandman or such, even a Belmont saved is a good thing.

    Plus they were a far inferior design for longevity which saw 90% of them rusted out, failed for rego and scrapped before 1990.
