Yeah it was the white HQ I asked you about on a post a few weeks back. Yes Inners it was the one over against the fence. I spoke to him at Repco in Wellington on the way down and again at the show. He is absolutely certain of its authenticity.

That's cool, you know I love a HQ Van! So long as it can be backed up with some sort of proof.

Here is a picture of the said Van:

Yeah Mate, that's the van. He was telling me something about having the numbers confirmed somewhere, and then it been valued at around $60k. I got talking to him at Wellington when I asked him if he was local because I was chasing a Drivers side wiper arm. ( mine had come off on the way) he was VERY reluctant to tell me exactly where he lived. Worried about people knowing where his van lives. From memory there was something different about the grille.

I don't have images of the tags. I got the info from a current registration search.

I'm not trying put the car down because I really like it (It could make it right pretty easily). But $60K is extremely optimistic even if it was proved to be factory 350. The car is a long way from production.
