    Limited release equates to similar to 5 litre in WB commercial vehicles. Available but only to a select few who held a dealer to ransome.
    I've heard tales of a WB one tonner with factory 5 litre, but have never seen tags for a WB commercial with a 5 litre. Have you seen any?

    How good would it be to find a factory 5 litre WB Kingswood ute - stuff dreams are made of.

    I've only ever seen one, a yellow Cab chassis, L31 M40, column shift and bench seat.

    Not sure dreams about WB's are common! Go one better and find a HZ Sandman 5litre ute. Will always be worth double what a WB Kingswood ute is worth!

    According to this ford forum they only did utes in XH. I probably shouldn't keep this going, it is a ford after all. But it is a panel van.

    But the heart wants what the heart wants lol. My first ute was a WB so they've always been special to me. I've had 3 sandman ute's but only 2 WB's - need to even the ledger first :-)

    Not really. Sandmans are not really uncommon any more. 5 litre factory WB commercial? Pretty much one of a kind

    So is a HQ Belmont L31 sedan. Doesn't make it more valuable or collectable than a 308 GTS sedan unless it is maybe a mint survivor.
