In the HJ series 18V was the black (slate black) for base models while 19V is generally the black for the premium models - GTS and Sandman etc.
The grain texture is quite different and the colour was a little different too.
In those days with the right relationship with the dealer you could order most of the options presented in your plate numbers. The most difficult would be ordering passenger tyres on a commercial vehicle. A dealer would have just told you to get a Sandman as the cost would have been cheaper than all the added changes.
The vehicle is listed in my spreadsheet as a Sandman, but I don't recall who gave me that info. It could have been Byron, Leroy, Jason or a couple others.
As Inny said, HHS will look up a microfische database and tell you if the sales order said 'Sandman' and which dealer it was ordered from.
