    Oldmans HX Sandman

    Hi all my name is Brady I'm 15 turning 16 i own a HQ 4 door Monaro and 3 Kingswoods and a factory 253 V8 Premier, Do not have any Panelvans or utes (well we accurly have one but its not a HQ-HZ its an Ek Panno) would love to have a panelvan cause they are so handy and look real good when done right.
    But my dad had a HX Sandman when he was a bit older then me. the pics are bad quality cause they are Pictures of a Picture. oh and by the way the aftermarket paint that it was painted as is British Racing Green
