    Missing my old girl!

    Hey all.
    I know this is a VEERRYY long shot, but about 10 years ago, I regretfully sold my original HX Sandman, and I am just going out on a wing and a prayer to see if I could track her down again.

    She was 308, Turbo 400, 2.76 Salisbury, full head lining, has 2 windows on each side, GTS guards, GTS dash, column shift auto, after market air-conditioning and ran on straight gas. Her number plate was GAS-444.

    I swapped it for a 12 second LX SS hatchback when I was young, dumb and wanted to go fast.

    The bloke I sold it to lived in O'Connor in Perth's northern suburbs, but apparently it was last spotted about 5 years ago in the Rockingham area.

    As I said, its a long shot, but you just never know.

    Any info would be appreciated. Its been 10 or 11 long years and I think about her regularly and would love to get her back.

    Please PM me if you know of her whereabouts.

    Best of luck mate....I too know your pain. Sold my hq coupe 10 yrs ago.....the owner shipped it to America with him, so I have zero chance in getting her back. :(

    Hope you get reunited with yours soon

    Definately put pics up

    Column Auto? Something you put in or was it a replica?

    Nah, apparently one of the previous owners put it in. Haha, yeah, Ocean Reef too. Not O'conner. Yeah, if she has ended up in Rockingham, she is either on blocks somewhere or been stolen and burnt out. But hey. You never know.
