I do have it recorded but I have 2 x chassis numbers for it. Leroy and I both had it recorded and be both had different numbers. He had it ending in 545A and I had 454A.

Those damn vacationer roof racks. They appear to have been everywhere. The Windsor blue 1-owner van I know of has them too.

545A is Correct.

Yeh the racks are something I am not excited about. But atleast there is a hoodlining to cover this inside welds. So it can be done correctly without warping the crap out of the roof!

Jason nice score, that PSN is one you have added to your GTS site as a GTS knew I had seen it somewhere b4. Could you send me the correct engine and chassis no. too.

Thanks

Leroy

Hmm I will have to check my GTS webbie. Thats a bit strage. Im staring at pics of the van tags at the moment. And it is whats on them. =)

Jason glad you have finally got your palais white van

We found our dream van yellow HZ, yours looks in better condition than ours after soda blasting...and we probs paid more for our dream van...and have changed everything back to original...

Cheers Jenny. Ah you pay what you have to, to find the van you want I guess. Like I said I brought it sight unseen. I do wonder how much bog there is. But at the same time done really care haha. The bloke who owned it/half still does was planning to do it up for his son. His son is on P plates and the V8 law has stopped them from doing it as he would not be able to drive it....... I had him on my list for wanting a set of DY2 stripes. So when they where done I gave him a buzz and he told me he might sell it. The rest of the phone call was a dream.

Well done Jason! I bet you cant wait to get stuck into that van. nothing better than finding "the one"!

Cheers. Was more ass than class finding this one...

--- Updated ---

good find mate, that's 1000% better condition than mine!

I can see why they painted it super mint tho, quite possibly the best colour ever, with mint julep and windsor blue sharing second place. (hehe, it's all personal taste isn't it)

haha was waiting for a comment like that =). Knew it would be either you or Adam. lol.

Well it would be bestest if Flamenco Red wasn't a colour but you're all out of luck.

You've probably seen this photo a million times before but it's perfectly suited to this thread. I had it as a desktop background for quite a while.



Gives you something to strive for. The guy that owned it was on Fastlane but I think he sold it? Not sure if he's on here.

Love that van. Would be nicer with DY2 stripes tho. But yes its a pic I have had as a desktop background many many times lol.

I would like an Ultra Blue HZ Ute with about 63,000km on the clock! hmm need to go buy that lotto ticket!

if your referring to that 63000 km HZ ute in the vic museum, i think its Opalene Blue, Ultra blue is much darker..[COLOR="Silver"]
Jokes about colours aside, well done Jason. happy 4 you..[/QUOTE]

Cheers Adam. Yes sorry Opalene Blue whas what I did mean. I think its more the fact thats its so orginal that I want it lol.

I vote papaya or valencia ute as my favourite. But white hz's are hard to beat.

The only trouble is that it is so hard to order the colour you really want 31 plus years after they stopped making them.

But...... I have a chamois hx kingswood ute that I am going to pull apart but the colour is starting to grow on me :Chin:

Having something different is half the fun. My HZ Sandy ute is Saddle Tan metallic. Now thats not a pretty colour. But if I had it all again I would have painted it the original colour and never thrown out the original engine..... 30k later it would be crazy to strip it all back now lol. Plus it was my first car. and 15 years on I still have it.
