    Still think there is a BIG difference between Asking and Getting!

    Sort of looks Supermint in colour and with the Quad Headlights looks HZ until you see the stripes.

    Stunning looking van & looks in great condition. + stamped XX7 ++ big plus

    But 253 & windows not high on most peoples priority list.

    and seems to have a identity crisis with the HX/Z parts

    would be more of a custom van than original sandy

    I was holding back a little before posting in case it's a members van......may still be?.

    As somebody that has been looking at vans for sale for quite a while, I remember this being on gumtree (fairly distinctive rego plates) with a story that this was his dads van (possibly from new) and was advertised in the high 20's or low 30's. Then a few months later it had a different story but with the same photos so I assume the same seller. The old photos were of it in a shed, but it looks repainted since??
    Then it had pink or red curtains a scruffy interior and possibly no striping. It's obviously been done up since with the interior etc. The speedo shot doesn't reflect the quoted mileage, whereas I think the other ad photos did.

    The look now and the wording of the ad makes me think a dealer or flipper has their hands on it, but then why would it keep those plates????

    Happy to be corrected on the finer points but it definitely was previously advertised with a different approach.

    It is now located near Rockhampton whereas before I think it was Sunshine Coast

    Having said that it does look good, just not sure why on a genuine van you would customise the interior like that....... a few red flags for mine but perhaps easily explained

    The blurb looks to be a cut 'n' paste.

    I can understand custom touches as they can all be a little repetitive and this Van is a long way from being stock original.
