Well done mate. good find.

Does it have all 3 id tags? I have found the HZ GTS's I have recorded in NZ dont have all 3 id tags......

I reckon I saw this one on the 'TradeMe' NZ site. The Id tags were a bit blurry but I thought it had a 3 seating capacity??? Jez

Seat capacity was 2,.Other wise it would need a lv cert.(it was on Trade me)I got the engine number off our land transport agency and it was
QT816633.
As was a private import and I asume it had all 3 id tags, but will confirm when it arives here.As long as it can be tidyed up (not that it needs much)we will be happy,If it is a sandman that would be a bonus,othewise it would be a Kingswood,But will deck it out to be a replica sandman,Will purchase the decals etc.Hopefully there are a few decked out ones on this site,So we can look to see what others have done.

Cheers Marty
ps we thought it was cheap enough.

Good stuff Kiwivan,

Nice looking van, will be good to see some more pics, sorry but i don't envy you with fuel prices there, is it on gas ?

Nah it is on Petrol.
But we are lucky,It will cost us $140 a year for full insurance,$240 for rego,And that will drop soon to $90 as it will be a classic,So I do not mind paying 1.80 a litre.
As for the engine yes it is the original,Even the radio is,Which I will remove with something a bit better.
Our brock which is insured for 52k costs us $156 a year to insure with no excess,and once I put a GPS in the van there will be no excess on it as well.Currently it will be a $100,So it is not that expensive.

Here we all are repairing dashes and putting in the original radio and you have an original how lucky are you.....put yours on ebay and get one which has been cut out, (dash) you should make some $$$$ if you do change the radio
Good find for your van

Mate, leave the radio right where it is, and rig up an ipod setup, thats what I plan to do, the news is always shit and I always chop and change the radio channel for a good song. IPOd it.

[Kiwivan]

I take it that it is an Am push button radio,Can you still get it to receive an ipod signal.
I thought they were just FM??
