    As Byron said, the code on the trim line could be a good way to verify. If the vehicle has a base model Holden body but is fitted with a Kingswood exclusive interior colour then it's most likely a Sandman. Put up any tag details here and Byron (HK1837) will be able to spot the important bits. Checking for the factory interior light door switches is another little subtle pointer to verifying.

    Either way, you have a very well spec'd ute that looks the goods.

    Another thing worth checking would be to look for any trace of the old blackouts (body sill under the front guards, inside door aperture). You won't find anything if it's had a full bare metal body resto but sometimes if the body is good painters will only do what they have to and leave traces.

    Hi Thanks for your quick response.
    i checked the sills and interior but interior has been completely redone and sills are painted will have to get underneath and check there for black.
    It has footwell lights but as I said the interior has been totally redone so very hard to tell .
    Trim code: 1890-67V
