HUX454, looks like one of those grey area sandmans.
if it was built 2 months later, and if it was the common sandman option (XX7), the tags would read exactly the same, except the GVM would have been 1950kg.
this change occurred 10/1975.
love the Gazelle, i don't think i have seen another with that trim.
the auto and universal colour white doesn't help its cause much , white is common and auto sandmans are rare.
one of my sandmans is a 5/75 HJ ute in cotillion white, melb build, WM body, 2 seater, L32, M20, black slate trim, door interior lights etc etc so i am in the same boat as you. :-)
sounds like you are old enought to realise that these are just numbers on a car and to just enjoy it.
