What a wierd and unique car. One of only 3 x Nutria cars i've ever recorded, only the 11th with 64W trim and the first with GU8 diff. She'd be a stump puller in reverse with a high comp 173, M15 and 3.90:1 diff! That's an overall reverse ratio of 14.6:1!

Must be unique colour. Mr Jones doesn't even have a photo of a Nutria car on his oldholden page.
Anyone with a sample of what it looks like,

In some ways it is a shame it wasn't an M20 and the 64W was 64V, then i'd have been excited at the possibility of a Nutria 173 HJ base model Sandman ute with 3.90:1 diff. Would be the rarest one I'd have recorded yet! I'm pretty sure I currently only have 1 x 173 powered Sandman recorded, and it is just a plain white HJ van with nothing else special. Pretty strange hey, where today I'd get more excited at finding a 173HC or even 202LC Sandman than a fully loaded one! Sandmans like that are just so rare it isn't funny, and it appears now that any HX 6cyl Sandmans that turn up are more than likely a mistake in ordering.
You are a strange man Byron, "Nutria 173 HJ base model Sandman ute with 3.90:1 diff." Nothing exciting in that at all for me!
It's funny what excites different people...
Only really excited as it would be such a rare car. A fully loaded Sepia HJ Kingswood Sandman would really get me excited as it would not only be rare, it would be top spec ( as in L31, M41, air, steer, LSD, metallic etc). Cars at either end of the spectrum are always the rarest, and lots more of the inbetweens left today.
