    The thing i noticed is if it's a Kingswood, it shouldn't have the pinch mould(i think that's what it's called) along the bottom of the hoodlining going into the back.
    Well my van didn't have this anyway.
    BO6 = Rarer then a Sandman

    It will make a nice van with only paint and panel work even if its not a Sandman. The door trims are not kingswood, they are retrimed by an upholsterer. The ash tray must have $1000 worth of buts in it too going on the recent price rise.

    Just a question but did it have side windows in it.? looks like it might have in one of the pics as undercote on the side panel. No drama's but may want to check out the patch job if it is. If not then your away :D

    if i end up buying it i will definetly give it a full factory resto apart from the sunroof, more of a personal preference i dont mind them, it seems to have a bit more rust than i thought i am just going off photos at the moment as i havent seen it yet. what do you's all think about the rust above the tailgate would it be a big expensive job to fix??????



    and the weird looking patch job in the side panels i cant make out what has been done! it looks like foam-a-fill and sikaflex

    Holden's years changed over in Sept or Oct (I need to look this up). Bit like financial years ending in June.
