Will have to check on that one mate and get back to you, have a hunch they didnt.

I'm pretty sure this up here -----^ is not a Sandman.

Wow.. that one cool HB. I dont think I have seen one around. :-) Lots were carried over to the LC like the dash, console and steering wheel. Im glad they dumped those rims and moon hub caps.... haha

Are you planing on restoring that one day or leaving it as a survivor?

Mauser

A HZ that shrunk .lol.

This thread has been split from 'classiccars' original thread asking if his HZ was a Sandman. The thread moved onto a completely new discussion unrelated to the thread topic, and since it is a great discussion, it suits its own thread.

Hope that explains it well

Thanks.

oh and my first car of my own was an HB!

Thanks Blocker

My first car was a Ford, and it was my last

My first car was HB also Blocker, my second was a ford.

Ha, I knew a bloke that had a Brabham torana in the early eighties. We changed his plug leads around one day for a joke and it still ran as shitty as it always did.
