EVEN THE YOUNG GIRLS LOVE SANDMANS!
Here is my genuine HBD VY SSII Sandman.
Pretty plan build, with no other options other than the Sandman conversion package.
Currently under going a big transformation into a more modified van.
The Start of the transformation, before the hammers and cutting implements came out.

No I don't need a sticker package to tell me what I drive!
Nice ride Smooth...
What ur plans with the big transformation.
Still having dramas with that rear bar Smooth? Bad fit or just want to modify it?
nice thread Jon. I have looked at buying one of these too. drove it etc but couldnt get my head around how ruff it was for such a modern car... sounds like yours had a twin over here in WA! Some people just shouldn't be handed the keys to these rarer cars Agreed with your choice of the Calais fronts, they look punk.
All that said, I was close to buying an S storm Ute with an HBD optioned canopy. That's just my take on it.
Look forward to watching the progress.

Yep, really bad fit to say the least. Lots of mods and repairs needed just to get it to the point where it is a usable piece. Very, very thin walls when supplied. So have had to thicken whole lot up with 2 to 3 layers of fiberglass from behind.
Also modifying quite a bit to tie in with better with the over all style of the van.
I can look past the build quality of the vans if you can buy them for the right price and you already have the plans on redoing the work to bring them up to a better quality.
I would not buy one brand new with quality of the car as it left the dealership at $52k.
Still believe you get a lot of car for the money in todays second hand market.
