hj sandman van??

[Matt Kempnich]

The new Sandman package first appears in 10/75. Body 166728 is a September Adelaide body, it probably got delayed in assembly slightly at Dandenong and was complianced in 10/75. So it could possibly be a first type XX7 Sandman or an XU3 (they are exactly the same car). The changeover when XX7 becomes XU3 either happens at the start of October or in the first week or so of October, and the new Sandman (also coded XX7) appears at the same time.

Console brackets is the only identifier for HJ Sandman van. As Absinth says headlining must be there too, but it was a rare option outside of Sandman. You can look for unboltables and evidence of blackouts too.

thanks for all the help. Has console mounts and look factory so going by everything should be a sandman yeah?
