Byron, What was the van i sent you details for a while ago.... Persian sand L31 M21 brisbane built,no xx7 on tags, full length headlining twin headlight front but no centre console brackets.... Came within a whisker of buying it....Originally Posted by HK1837
HK 1837, what do you make of the 1860 kg on a HJ van?, first HJ van i can remember seeing with 1860 kgs...

I'll have to look it up, can't remember. Might have bee a comfort pack on a BO6.
Standard for HJ post 10/75 or HX XX7 or XU4 van with 6cyl. The reason you don't remember seeing it is they are so rare!
Thank you for all of your feedback everyone. I will check with the original owner about the black outs. Although the van has not ever been fully resprayed, it has had some touch up work over the years. I know it has had new door skins at some point, but I believe it has never been involved in a car accident. So at this point, the jury is still out then on whether it is a Sandman?
I'd be very surprised if it isn't, unless console mounts have been added. You'll know if the mounts are original as they'll have red lead electrostatic paint all over them.
HK1837, I have removed the centre consol to check the brackets. They appear to be factory fitted by the way they are attached to the floor, but they are not covered in red paint. They are painted in the same paint as the floor below the seats and the floor in the back part of the van. The paint has only been applied very thinly / lightly though. Also in response to your earlier question, yes the van does have drum brakes on the front.
