Nice, love these old school vans, they are from a bygone era we won't see again. So did I get it right that this one has the L34 spec engine or another one?

No it just has a 253 but now you have me thinking,a ratty looking van with a mint engine bay with a tough motor

It must be there to hide the bare floor behind the console on a HQ Sandman or on a column shift bucket seat HQ commercial (these have a seat separator). Has anyone here ever found a HQ bench seat floor shift manual ute or van? Just wondering what they put in between the seats (these have no seat separator).

This van had a bench seat from factory 253 three spd manual

had a change of plans and decided to get the HJ Sandman back on the road,new 350 and some tlc and have been driving it for about 2 months and loving it.I keep looking at this HQ and really dont know which way to go with it,restore back to factory.replica Sandman or leave it ratty but roadworthy.We already have 3 red cars and there were so many great HQ colours I thought maybe a rare HQ colour would be an idea and leave the statesman front on it and HQ bucket seats with all GTS options. Value doesn't come into it for me because I really don't think it will be worth any more restored back to original in fact I think it would be worth more as a replica Sandman.any thoughts? Cheers
