    G'day Adam,

    Apparently it was originally a Sandman, put the numbers up on the "Is this a Sandman" thread and Stickthis replied it was 99% a Sandman, the owner before me back in the 80's said he hit a roo going across the Nullabor and put the twin headlight front on instead of the single one, it was (will be) a 308 m21.

    Cheers

    G'day,
    was given a couple of pictures of the van at a show about '81 by Greg Mercer, he built a show van called Invader 2001

    I know it's not everyones taste but i reckon it doesn't look too bad, it's not how it will be restored but was good for it's time.

    It is a great buzz to find the history of a car. Well done!
