RIP rusty panel van
Your effectively saying that any Sandman that does not have XX7 or XU3 is of no real value over a standard van/ute? Nearly every Sandman you say has little value has had some rust removed and undergone a full restoration on this site. Clearly they do have an equal value to stamped Sandmans if they have proof of providence from someone like HHS.
My advice to anyone who may read this thread (even if it is a wind up) is not to send your vehicle to the scrap dealer if it has rust. There are other options.
