That first picture is the mount that is unique to the HQ sandman.
HQ Sandman vans were Belmonts with basically everything out of the GTS/4 bin added. As such the badges like V8 and Belmont were on the tailgate and front guards.

Nice find, look forward to seeing it restored down the track.
Found a nasco block for the old girl but is missing all the main caps. Any one got any laying aroung they want to get rid of?
I will be starting a new thread in the next month or so for the sandman ute I picked up as this will be my main focus before the panel van.
What makes you call it a NASCO block? The engine number or something else?
Yer the engine prefix is nt for new replacement engines instead of qt
