    BUILT- 05-79
    GVM- 2200

    What do you think, only rust in drivers cowl, everything else is spot on, statesman front, gts guards, full roof lining,console hold down tags minus motor and box with a set of weld wheels on, have made an offer and he excepted, what do you think its worth, cheers Andrew. .

    Have you got it in your garage yet? The last guy that came on here questioning the value of his Sandman with offer accepted had the seller pull out when he discovered what it was worth and list it on ebay. Get it in the shed, then ask questions.

    Hmmm. Tough one. Could be an XU3 (14.5cwt) example, but these are very rare. Does it have interior light switches on the door? Is headlining original? Has the front got cutouts for the airdam (note HZ won't have GTS guards so the front must have been changed when the Statesman front was put on). It may just well be a very late HZ XU3 van.
