I should add that it was actually December 1990 so it was only just the 90's. Still hanging on to the 80's!

Right on the point of change for the length of shorts too - thank god we got rid of the Warwick Capper shorts..... The "trucker" caps are definitely 80s!

But it proves one thing - the GTS/Rally rim is a timeless design!
It looked good when new, looked good in 1990, and still looks good today.

Yeah have to agree, Sandmans are a time machine! Look good in any decade, unlike the clothes we wear when driving them :Rasta:

Beg to differ mate. They are making a comeback!

Worn with the peak to the side or the rear isn't a comeback.....:Tongue:

I think those caps with the flat brim all the dudes were wearing the last couple of years were pretty uncool. They will get a laugh when they look back at them!

I did my apprenticeship in the mid-late 80's and I remember a plumbing mob in Geelong who had at least 2 HZ Jasmine yellow Sandman panelvans. They used to roll up to Alcoa on a regular basis. The vans were always in mint condition! I intend to put my van to work one day. It will display my business name, will be some what decked out to suit my work (sparky), will only come out on good days and will not get roof racks, can't weight
