    67C was the base model Kingswood trim and 67V was the Kingswood SL trim, HZ didn't have a Belmont and the Holden base model got the Kingswood badge with the interior trim of the old base model. The Kingswood SL got the old style (HX HJ) Kingswood door trims. This coupled with the GVM of 2200 I would doubt if the van is a Sandman. Do the holes for the headlining in the back go through the standard lip at the top of the sides or does it have the extra strap spot welded along the lip?

    I cannot recall seeing the extra strap welded to the lip so I would say holes through the standard lip.

    Not sure that's correct. Defiantly a 8WM in HZ and WB commercials. Sedans and wagons may have had the SL version.
    The base series had better options but it was still the base series given 8WM description. Kingswood was always 8WN till the end.
    I still suggest contacting HHS. Removes the guess work. Byron who no longer posts on this site will have the correct answer.

    Yep... No Kingswood SL utes or vans as far as I am aware.... That was just a package on sedan and wagon.
    Vans.... This is the 2nd time round the block, 40 years later! talk about turning back the clock!

    WB do you actually read what is written? The base model in HZ got the base model trim and Kingswood badges. The Kingswood SL had the 8WN code but got the Kingswood SL badges. Base model trim is 67C, Kingswood trim is 67V which would have been the trim level in a Sandman. Oh BTW the word is Definitely not Defiantly.
