I have a 76 HJ xx7 sandman tux black with balck trim, rare or common? i have heard of a few and a few Hx's but only seen maybe 2 others in the flesh?

Tuxedo is not all that rare, not as common as yellow but not rare (so far anyway).

Leroy, unfortunately the Cyclamen HJ isn't a Sandman.

The Pananas are pre 11/78 and I have some already. I'll see if I have any of those yet. It's post 11/78 that I have no Panama example.

Never heard of Orangeade as a colour.

There's a pic here http://gallery.oldholden.com/Mr_Jone...lours.jpg.html

I have seen an HX GTS in Sunburst but the rest have escaped me so far.

Should have read the whole question re the Panamas :errf:

I'll keep my eyes open for the others

i have seen a HJ in cyclamen in WA. GVM 1950 kg 2 seat. WM body
it has had a few owners lately and is doing the rounds as people figure out the tags don't actually match the car...
i went to look at it in Australind and last i saw it advertised it was in busselton..
i put a link to it on here when it was advertised then...

also, at of the GM days over east there is a pic of a cyclamen HQ ute - not sure of its ID, i have seen the pic posted up here before from Absinth....

as for Panama, i can think of 4 off the top of my head...most of them 1977 builds from memory

how many Malachite do you have???
