    Lets settle this

    Hello all.

    This is Jason here, I purchased the Van in question on e bay. Have not picked it up yet and will try and verify its originality before handing over the money. I have been chasing something half decent for a year or so.

    I have a photo of the tag off the Sandman. On it is the following. If someone wants I can e mail it to them.

    HZ8W M 70
    396383-A
    1929-18V
    568-30520
    ENG L31 Trans M21 RRAXLE GV4

    I think thats what it all is.


    Can someone assist with its originality please.

    Any help appreciated.

    Hi Jason, welcome to the site and good buy!

    Have a look through http://mysandman.com.au/ident.html might be able to assist you further.

    Need more info that just the Body plate info. The ADR plate details are important to, as are a few other items.

    • Does the ADR plate say 2 Seat Capacity?
    • What is the GVW in kg displayed on the ADR plate?
    • What numbers are displayed on the glove box lid tyre placard sticker (bottom right corner).
    • Does it have the full headlining attachment strip behind the upper tailgate (shark tooth strip).
    • Does it have the headlining attachment strips along the top internal wall brace?
    • Does it have the internal light door switches in place?


    Having the above is by no means a guarantee, but iif it is all original it most likely is a Sandman.

    If you get more photos and details post them up so we can help you out.

    Cheers.

    Thanks for your help. I will ask for more. Does the details I have mention so far look correct?

    The plate info provided says that it's;

    • Commercial (not Kingswood) panel van.
    • Opaline Blue paint
    • 18V Black trim
    • 308 with 4 speed


    So the list is good so far.
    I'm sure Absinth or a couple other forum gurus will be here when they knocks off work and will tell you it's legit. :Chin:

    Definately 100% a Sandman.... 18V (slate black) trim code confirms it...congrats Jason on your purchase at a very reasonable price.... if the seller had advertised it better and posted up the tag details I reckon it would have gone for a lot more.....
