    Well said [MENTION=204]Alien DNA[/MENTION], number's and purist's have there place. Otherwise we would have no production example's of anything. Way back when I was in my twenties, and we were buying these vehicles new, no one was concerned about motor's, gearboxes or diff's, believe me on this. Motors were being heavily modified or turfed, and the same with the rest of the driveline. Then the next bit was the interior and body work, ute's were, to a lesser extent, the same. Many HQ's were ordered with a V8 and 4 speed, well before Sandman came along. So to find any Sandman is an historic moment, I would not be deterred by it not being matching number's in any way. To find one with anything matching is comparable to winning the lottery.

    Cheers.

    Grab the sandman at the reasonable price and follow it history and start looking for the original chassis or at least a hq chassis therefore it would be registered as a hq

    Date code motor would turn up
