Could this be a sandman - Chassis swap

[TwoTees]

you say its got an hq chassis under it?...then it WAS a sandman..not anymore..:(

Hey V6HQUTE,
About the above statement, have a read of this attached thread and make up your own mind as to weather it is still a sandman or not. There is a divided opinion as to the validity of it so have a read and draw your own conclusions.

Congratulations on the find.

HQ chassis = BIG BLOCK!!!!!!!

[V6HQUTE]

it still a sandman to me, i dont really car if its the wrong chasssie i will do what i can to find the original, but i dont like my chances, i will try restore it too its factory specs, once ive finished my ute, i dont plan on selling either my hq or the sandman ever, they can sit in the shed restored, until i want to drive them

yeah i reckon, if i keep the hq chassie ill go atleast a 350, fuel injected would be nice, but it wont be until next year i start it, probally mid next year and fix it as long as it takes, not time limit

I agree with you mate it's still a classic wheather it's original or not At the end of the day it's just a car and if you appreciate it you wont care what people say.

yeah realy who these days actually know anything about these old cars, other than a few and blokes on sites like this, so i dont care i own a sandman for 300bucks, i cant even show if to my mates cause theyve got no idea about cars, not even new ones

I simply informed him of where he can read the opinions of lots of forum members, then come to his own conclusions as the enjoyment he was having in finding a sandman was tainted by an single opinion.

Thats the same for me, none of the kids at my school gives a flying PG13 about cars, all they care about is football and if there hair looks good,, so these sites are the only things i have to talk to people about cars

yeah same here, only place to talk to people who know what your going on about, the hair thing annoys me get it cut short and forget about it, some of the kids probally send more then $300 on hair stuff, and for the same price i got a piece of history
