Sandman without original chassis. Still a Sandman?

yeah value is another discussion altogether. however, i'm sure if the rails matched it would have sold 6 months ago.

I agree with you again.

That's twice in one night !!!

All I am saying is if Cam likes the car, knows the full story, not quite a Sandman, and buys it, good for him.

Once again, in the spirit of honest opinioning, LMAO, I'm not a huge fan of utes soooooooooooooo yeah.

Waits for the rage!!!

All good arguments, but let's get real about things..... It's over 30 years old and had an accident that required a replacement chassis section. The rest of the ute is as it was originally.
I'd be devastated if My perfect, original Sandman ute was no longer regarded as a Sandman because a panel beater used a second hand chassis section (common practice at the time), possibly covered by an insurance claim.

The chassis should have been either re-stamped with the original number or had the new number removed and a police number stamped, but in my opinion the owner (and subsequent owners) shouldn't be penalised for an accident.
