    Hi Guys, first post.

    Hi everyone, been looking for a Sandman for a long time now, a cheap, not to bad one that I could bring back to it's full glory with my son. Well you would know that ain't no easy task.
    I have just found a windowless HX that has the N (Kingswood) on the plate, but it is straight as a die, has had all rust repaired, painted flat black to seal, 308, TH400, WB Statesman front end, GTS Dash and wheel, Bucket seats for 5 grand. It's rough inside and will need the seats done/replaced, roof lining replaced, door trims replaced, top of dash replaced, but it's all there and nothing looks bad at all.

    Should I bite the bullet and buy this? Thanks in advance.

    model HX8W-N-70
    body 213953-A
    trim 1925-60A
    paint 567-30183
    L32
    M20
    GU4

    10/76

    The Flat Black likely hides many secrets.
    At the price though it sounds like a good starting project for a tribute Sandman.

    Thanks Innuendo, don't think it will be going back to the glitter poo tho haha. Might be to far gone to make into a tribute, what with the WB statesman front, but might build it along the lines of the Sandman, just won't write Sandman all over it.
    Thinking of going that Aquarius colour, looks good and is the kids star sign but have heaps of time to study all the great toys on here and make up my mind.

    Thanks for your reply mate, Dion.

    If it's not too bad, it's a bargain.... especially with the WB Statesman front and turbo400.

    Buy It!!!!
