    Give Greg a call at Classic Oz Wreck, he is wrecking the HJ Sandman pictured below and it probably still has the rear hoodlining bracket on it.

    Thumbs up

    Looking at the body plate and with your other information I'd say there is a 90% certainty it is a genuine Sandy man......

    Interesting body plate. That one is stamped while all the others that I seem to recall (short memory) were reverse stamped.
    Are these common?

    It is common in Adelaide built cars and bodies up until late HJ.... seems to have changed to reversed stamped from around 1-76 onwards.

    adam,it had the right tags and body but the chassis didnt match...i bought it off a mate that bought it to get the ht prefix motor from it...so it had no motor..did have a bit of rust but the side windows and chassis put people off buying it to restore so i wrecked it...
