Is this a sandman

[acmd]

My brother said it came from country Queensland somewhere

Yep, as long as the chassis number matches the plates and there's no sign of switched plates.

1887, Chamois paint. That's gotta be pretty unusual for a Sandman too.

yep chassis n o. same but has had a paint change from the old chamious colour i think the tags where taken off

Cool ute!

[HK1837]

The GVW was my question as it must be a mistake or there is more research needed here. Has it got factory A/C?

[acmd]

This ute has been changed a bit it runs a 253 no A/C was an auto when my brother bought it back in 1985/86 he put back the 4sp just the fact it is the colour and trim i have my doubts but i have read somewhere can't find it now that if someone wanted a v8 4sp without all the good stuff they basically gave them a sandman in normal colour and trim but still have GTS dash and wheel i'm probably wrong but did read it and i ask my brother he didn't change the plates

Hk what made the gvw very so much my hx is 2200 kgs what was the standard weight

[playwme]

What's the GVW expected to be Byron? Those 2 plates definitely belong together?

[HK1837]

1860kg for a V8 HX XX7. 1950kg is the van GVW. The reason it can't be 1950kg is the ute's load capacity would exceed 500kg which defeats the whole point of XU4/XX7. The only thing I can think of that might raise it is if the car has integrated A/C, and the fact in HX an XX7/XU4 ute with integrated A/C and an XX7/XU4 van share the same tyre placard.

[acmd]

Could it have been orders with a/c or do you think someone done a dodgy
