    You will find that most people who bag your BROCK, have either never owned one or even been fortunate enough to have been for a ride in one.
    If you could keep both would be good. Have you a spare child or partner you could sell instead:

    Don't get me wrong I love your van

    But is there any reason you turned a HJ sandman Into a HX sandman ?

    Personally i would prefer it to be correct with Gts guards and HJ stripes..

    cheers

    I"m confused you have it advertised as a 75 hj sandman
    Yet 63v is a hz trim (buckskin)
    64 is gazelle in a hj
    ?????

    Is it just an error in your listing ?

    One of my many mistakes was trading my A9X in on a 5sp VK Brock Director. Sure it was a nice touring car but the A9X crapped all over the Director in both performance and handling. The car was still a Crapodore, Brock enhancement or not... in the 12 mths I owned it the radio crapped out, the digital dash crapped out, the power windows stuffed up, the cruise control surged and shut off when it felt like it and the cam and lifters crapped themselves in that piss poor black motor. That was back in 87 when the car was only 2yrs old and spare parts were readily available.... there is no way I would own one now....

    You just need shooting for selling a A9X.
    and i didnt want to get into bagging peoples choices for cars other than Sandmans.
    There are still nice Holdens made after the 70's.:lol:
