You would think if you want someone to shell out 40K you would take better photos and add a complete description.

Yeah me too. But can you restore one properly without taking them off?

We took tags off the Green van and Yellow van during the resto, and put them back on with correct Rivets which Stickthis provided. Red van we didn't do under the bonnet, nor the ute. If the tags match the chassis, then its a genuine sandman especially since its XX7 we have GTS guards on our Green van because they look awesome, and we did a custom job.

I'm not sure about this. The second tag in the pictures has AHZxxxxxxxx does this mean it was built in Adelaide? If so, it would not have XX7 stamped on the other plate.

The A at the start of the chassis number denotes the first production run of that particular model under the ADRs. At the first ADR update during the HZ model run the chassis number would then become BHZxxxxxx. The number on that van is correct for an early build HZ and this is shown by the date on the same tag of 12/77, only the third month of HZ production, the chassis and body numbers both end in B for a Brisbane built car and XX7 is stamped on the body plate which is all correct for a Brisbane built Sandman.
