    The "It's a long shot but does anyone have my original motor" thread

    Hi all, as some here know I have a HX Sandman van. Unfortunately it's missing the original engine.

    I know it's a long shot, but I thought I'd throw it out there in case it's kicking around somewhere, though being a 253, it's possibly kicking around on the bottom of the ocean.

    The engine number is QR806037 and from what I've been told the van was originally from WA going by the dealer code of 858.

    I haven't got my hopes up but thought I'd ask.

    Cheers

    Possibly, although only being an SL/R and not an XU2, L34 or A9X option package might count against it. Send me the details and i'll ask.
