    You can't tell from the ID plates on a HJ Kingswood if it is a Sandman or not. It probably is but it may not be. There is no easy way to tell if it is an original Sandman or not without going looking for evidence of repaired Kingswood side strip holes and knowing what factory installed console brackets look like.

    Can you get the chassis number off it, should be close to BHJ078xxM?

    GDay Kramer....

    Welcome to the site. Hopefully we can assist in helping you faithfully restore her. We need more Ute people on here as well as us with Vans.

    Maybe you can help partition Blocker to get a ute picture added on the header strip (unfortunatly he is a bit Van biased as you can see from his signiture block).

    Love to see photos of the old girl.
