Photo shop in 1972-4! Back then cut and paste involved scissors and glue![/QUOTE]

HAHA, yeah I didn't mean the computer version. Some of the photo doctoring I've seen I'd guess would have been done by fine painting/drawing on the original, as per the headrests I referred to.

I don't have brochures in front of me but I'm convinced some HJ and HX brochures use the same shot of a van and reuse it in both sandman and base model brochures (with stripes/without stripes and the car in different colour even)

Byron, when you say it is a real XX7, are you going by the various differences you have noticed, or have you a copy of its build sheet?
