    Now I'm confused.

    VIN-8M70TF J520518J. Dosen't J5 indicate Dandenong built, or were the bodies all built at Elizabeth?

    Jason, way off the mark! Pagewood build their own HQ van bodies. Not 100% sure on Dandenong HQ vans, I don't recall ever seeing one to see if it was an Elizabeth body or not. It is HJ-HZ vans assembled at Pagewood and Dandenong that used Elizabeth bodies. All assembly plants that built Sandmans built their own ute bodies.
