    Will be a nice Ute. Strange that some Kingswood got optioned the same as Sandman. I guess they just took what was on the dealers yard.

    The reason for this was that back in the day insurance for a Sandman or a Monaro was almost double the price of a Kingswood or Belmont be it a sedan, ute or van.
    That's why there are so many optioned up examples around.
    No one gave two hoots if it was the real deal or not. Same issue with Toranas.
