Show pictures of the console mounting and floor shift hole and find evidence of blackout around the sills, beaver etc.
That's all that is needed to say 100% that this is a Sandman.

my point is that there will always be doubt when you are relying on a some mounts, hole and paint. I agree that the chances of fakes is not the same likelihood as monaros but geez i'd be hard pressed to do a ground up unless it had XX7, XU3, 18V trim on HX or a document history with pics and so on. i suppose it was a series of options rather than having a dedicated model code like monaro.

I'd be happier identifying a HQ than a HJ in some cases.
People being worried about not having option codes isn't new, most HQ SS and HQ XV4/XW8 owners are in the same boat. You jsut have to properly inspect that car yourself first.

not that i know much about the finer points but the build dates related to kingswood and holden are fairly confusing for me in HJ
