Hi Sandman Lovers - I need help

[Valencia]

Does this mean you can take us for a spin in May Gene?

Mmm not likely it will be in a pulled apart state by then Mick
but i can take you for ride ( thrash) in the Torana instead

[jon nik]

you can check if it has a full console, there should be two brackets welded to the floor one large at rear and a small one under the dash, and also the rear head lining has a bracket welded to body by the upper tailgate hinges

Cheers Jon

I've checked another holden forum on the HZ Sandman, it talks about the tyre placard as Sandman's came out with GTS wheels and apparently there is a code for this on the placard ?
Other thing to look for is lights in the footwells which was standard for HZ Sandman ?
Apparently they had the bottom front spoiler too, but these can be taken off due to being damaged.

The code refers to the tyres not the wheels. You can check if there is the correct spare wheel cup on the spare wheel winch for the N67 wheels. Search spare wheel winch on here as there are photos of them. The door handles need to be non-chromed. Not black paint over chrome. Head lining is not proof either as I am sure it was available as the comfort pack option on all vans that didn't have it standard. I remember talk about the correct wiring harness for the twin headlight front being an identifier as well.
Best bet is to contact Holden Historical and see if they can confirm it for you.
