Would be a beaty for someone to restore. Doesn't come much more desirable than that in a van, ie HJ in Tuxedo black with Chamois/Covert trim in L31 M41 GU7 guise. I'll bet it was LSD too originally. While i'm not a black car fan, it happily have that or a ute in the same build configuration. Good luck with the sale, hopefully someone does it some justice with aquality resto.

Just a bit eye catching, black with white stripes. I reckon lowered with a nice set of b45 simmons, 10" on the rear, paint the motor flat black, twin 2" exhaust with 12" dogs, might even go a black 5 post tuff bullbar. Match our car nicely. Shame I havnt got any coin. Matbe delete the stripes on second thoughts. Just black all over.

doesnt the m41 make it a B06 rather than a sandman... although it having the centre console brackets as well is a head scratcher

nice colour combo.... hope it goes to a good home

No, just means it is an auto 308. Rear headlining attachment points and console mean XX7 in this case.

Hey guys, I noticed the trim plate has Adelaide details (ie body number ending in A) yet the thin vin plate says sydney built H8. The sandman I'm restoring has the same and I always thought someone had dodgied something up there, but is this normal?

Hi Sandaro and welcome.

The VIN in this eBay add says it is a Sydney built Van (H8 - in the VIN).

I'll be corrected if wrong but the chassis & bodies were made at different plants and then paired up at final assembly. The order this happened in I am not clear on but others will be able to clarify.
