Barry's HJ Ute

[Innuendo]

Tonneau's were an option (E93). Although; like all models coming to an end GMH had a habit of including what was previously an option as standard fair to help sell product or compete with the opposition.

This is incorrect and had been discussed here before. They were standard on HZ Sandman and all Kingswoods, so standard on HJ Sandman ute. I would put money on them being standard with HX Sandman too.

I have owned two HJ Utes that had never had a tonneau fitted and also a HQ. I have also owned many more that did have tonneaus fitted. The Holden parts manuals list the tonneau as an option and the accessory option is E93. That's not to say Holden or dealers didn't supply them already fitted to compete for sales or offer as a promo. It may well have been discussed before but that certainly doesn't make it fact. That would like arguing over factory mudflaps (option or standard fitment).
