finding sandman owners in qld

[Sndman77]

Hi Paddy

I guess it the Fairburn Dam in the background????
Great looking ute.
Would be nice to see a CQ sandman group or club.
Personally I think a group will be much easier to start off.
Their is local guy here, he bought his sandman van brand new (HJ model) and still the original owner.
I should have a chat with him.
In Rocky, their a group trying to get a Holden club off the ground, their is enough members (mid 20 members).
I have joined up and I'm hoping it will get up.

Hi Guys,

Nice utes I have been on the hunt for one for some time, you don't know of any that may be for sale do you?

cheers

Hi, I don't know any for sale, I think in someways, that Ute's are harder to find. Most people I have talk to about sandman or show and shine days. Often say to me, did GMH make sandman ute's.
If I see anything, I'll let you know.

Yes the utes are definately harder to find, although I reckon Sandmans in general are fairly rare, or at least cleverly disguised as a run of mill holdens due to the stripes being removed.
A lot popping up latley I reckon, since the other legends of the 70's became popular. Must because all us around our late 30's early 40's have decided to just go and get that car we always wanted or once had and want again..

There's that drunken sig again...got to fix that up...!

Yes the GTS monaros, and A9X and GTR XU1's have gone past the affordable stage, the GT xy falcons and GT HO's have all done their boom...now it is time for the Sandman, kingswood, and brock commodores to be collected...like shares, only we will never redeem them...lol...and it isn't only the 40's and 30's its the 45's and 50's who want the sandmans....as they were our era. drive ins, and vans.....I have a GT BF sitting in the garage as well....probably never be worth much but great to drive..when not in the sandman......
