[r0bb0]

hi guys stumbled across this site when i was checking the id plates on my new hq panel van project
as the van sits now its a 05/74 windowless van, gts dash, black trim,bucket seats, straight gas 202 with toyota 5 speed sort of a beige colour with lots of rust
that when things get weird after checking the plates it tells me that it is an Adelaide built belmont panel van with a 253h/c trim code is
1868-30B paint is 567-15335(Orchid Metallic) M20 trans no raxle or eng stamp and is also a 2 seater and the adr plate matches the frame
any help would be much appreciated
cheers robbo

I'd have no hesitation is saying it's a HQ Sandman based on the tag information.
Does it have the original chassis?

jackpot dude! even if it not orig rails you still have all the beginnings of a super sweet HQ sandman project!

Looks like you're on a winner there

Orchid is a great colour too

I missed that the first around. Well that is great news and a highly desirable combo.

Pity it was a L31/308 but 253, 4 Speed, Orchid Metallic with Black trim is pretty darn good!
When the tag has nothing is the ENG and RRAXEL that simply means it was factory standard spec. I.E: Basic 253 and 3.08:1 Salisbury.
