The images shown are all VE's but the same thing basically. We know of a hand full of VF's already done.Originally Posted by SLR_dave
JHP is simply a re-seller for the manufacturer AMCAT (Australian Made Canopies and Tonneaus) www.amcat.com.au
AMCAT are the only supplier of the conversion and all work has to be done at their factory at Bayswater, Melbourne, Victoria.
AMCAT is a subsidiary of Hi-Class Composites Pty Ltd www.hi-classcomposites.com.au The principle owner is Christoper Wood and he and a partner were the original suppliers to Holden for the VY-VZ official Sandman conversions after being invited to build the "One Off" MAMBO Sandman VU prototype on which John Evans did the custom paint. Of course this one off turned into the conversion and 224 official Sandman conversion were built under the HBD (Holden By Design) tag, these were VY SII and VZ only. Back then the company was FTP Pty Ltd and this company is no longer. When FTP closed the moulds were purchased by Chris (again as he was no longer with FTP) pre-auction and modified slightly for strength improvements and offered as an aftermarket option for all models VU to the current VF. Two canopy shapes now exist VU-VZ and VE-VF.
The correct decals for the modern Sandman are available from only one place and that is the original designer of them John Evans Race Paint www.racepaint.com.au Fitting '70's decals to V-Series is just plain wrong.
