HZ - NSW Sandman Van $40k Dealer

[wbute]

Not to mention non original engine.

I personally don't agree with comments that its good for us if they start commanding these types of $$ or more if 308/completely correct. Whilst these prices may be good if you're getting out of the hobby and can recoup your resto cost, believe me, from living through the Monaro price surge 10 years ago it makes it tough to restore a car once the prices have jumped. Every part seller or spare parts car is also worth 10x what it used to be worth and as a result resto costs go way up. And as a result take longer to save up coin

I tend to agree. You just outlay more money everywhere. It's like the wedding industry. Add 50% just because of the word wedding. Add 50% because of the word Sandman (that's increasing costs at all points).

Yeah, that's the strangest looking auto shifter I've ever seen. Maybe the air cleaner lid stickers are wrong too and it's a 308/4-speed.

Hoses from wiper motor to washer nozzles are missing too.

10 grand less and would be a good buy.

HZ didn't get that type of w/washer pump. The HZ one is the continuous type mounted under the bottle.

There are too many things wrong with that car for $40K.

No console lid & a crook steering wheel is not a good look.

Where are the heater hoses, it probably needs a new heater core.

Also part of the alternator bracket is missing.

The dash colour being different to the seats and door trims that cant be right surely

I agree something wrong there?? Is that factory?? (hard to say as its been fiddled with over the last 30years)not appealing to me anywho...

Way to much for the state that the van is in

[Big Rob]

I might offer them 10 grand and then point out all those things. They will of course, laugh at me and sell it to someone without our collective knowledge for a high price.

Buckskin dash is 2 tone and doesn't match seats.

Our red van is like that dash two tone and buckskin seats, and it's never been changed. There is a thread on here about it and I think it's odd but correct
I am pretty sure it's not the one from orange, the orange Windsor blue van is acrylic so check that. The nose cone is Thai on the Orange one but also notice could be a WB body without the side rear lights that's not saying they have not been filled in but why would you. I will make a call and confirm

[bobsmith380]

Buckskin with two tone dash is absolutely correct. Mine is like that and I have had it since new.

[Big Rob]

Good call on the rear marker lamps..... I didn't notice that and I've got a WB!

l think its worth it even though it has missing arm rest needs steering wheel to be painted give there black outs abit more lift etc etc think about it not gunna cost an arm and leg to fix latter on time will pay off in the end
