Wanted to Swap

[mauser]

how unusual. The HJ Sandman Panelvan shell would have to be the rarest and the hardest to replicate. A HX Sandman shell is similar in most facets to a HX Kingswood Panelvan one with the most obvious differences the deletion of the side strips.

What chance was there that someone found a HJ Sandman Panelvan shell to replace a HX Sandman one... and why??? Wouldnt they have just registered the HJ? Doesnt make sense that they would put the HX plates on the doner HJ Shell unless the HJ plates were tainted.

What did they do where the firewall has the plug for the engine harness or is the under the dash U21 wiring HJ? You may have a complete HJ Sandman with only the HX plates on it. (Check chassis number, engine date code, M21 date code) There have been some terribly rusted HJ shells come up recently that were past restoring in my opinion.
