Proposed Sandman ID Guide

[Blocker]

Thanks for the input everyone, keep them coming.

I will update as you guys provide info. As you know I am not the expert around here (just check my posts) but I want to be able to provide information that is easy to read for the beginner so they have enough data to keep investigating their vehicle to determine its authenticity.

A couple of extra points for the early HJ Sandman.

Console front mount in place.
5+1 (rolling) digit speedo (early).
High beam indicator in the fascia (early).

Is the console mount only for HJ or all Sandman series?

Would we also say that hq sandman build dates between feb and sept 1974

Hz for example would we say they must be 8WM70 for vans and 8WM80 for utes
There are more possible trim codes for hz sandman's like 63v and 67v
Hx and Hz is a sandman if 8WM70 and is 18v or 65a trims ?

And I think an I'd guide would be a great thing

Thanks Rodney - I'll add the build date from Feb 74 for HQ.
I'll add the body code in for HX and HZ.

What happened to 63v buckskin on hz trim code should that not be there mine is hz sandman with buckskin trim
just asking thats all
cheers

Getting onto Rodney and Glacier's points about trim code - should there be a list of trim codes that were included on Sandman or excluded? Which one would be easier to list?

If I recall Byron and Leroy have been doing a lot of work on trim codes and I think Byron mentioned it is a can of worms, or that's his way of saying there is just not enough info available yet to be sure...

Anyway, thanks for input keep it coming.
