    30E is normal black trim for 1974 HQ Kingswood for both bench and buckets.

    You'll never pick whether it is a Sandman or not for ID plates. Your best bet is to clear out between the buckets and take a photo of the tunnel between the seats. The only other indicator will be original paint blackouts. Is the speedo 120 or 140MPH (plus the dual scale metric bits)?

    Inny, standard diff in this case is a 3.08, if it was a 3.36 it'd have GV2 stamped. 3.36 is standard behind 308 in HQ.

    If it is a Sandman it is only the 4th 1885 (Burgundy) one I have recorded and the first Kingswood ute (Sandman or not) in that colour. DO you have the chassis number? Will be close to DHQ20000M but I can't narrow it down much more as I don't have many Dandenong HQ's from this time recorded.
