Would have been tested and write up done around Oct/Nov 73 so they probably would not have known Sandman was due to be released.

Goes to show how popular vans were at the time, same price as a GTS 350 and they had a hard time getting hold of one for testing. $6100 was a hell of a lot of money for a base model car back in 73/74. Sunburst metallic paint also on a 73 Sydney built HQ Belmont van. Shows why it is hard to ID a HQ Sandman today.
