    Nothing says Sandman in your images.

    No sign ever had full roof lining, I'm going to say not a sandman.

    From the look of the photos there doesn't appear to be any rear mounting teeth or bow holes in the rear. There should be a strip about 10cm thick running from front to back. There also appears to be no black outs around the door. From the interior photo I cant see any mounts near the gearbox hole. But that is just my view I may be missing something.

    Sorry mate that body isn't a HZ Sandman. As far as my knowledge goes.
    But don't dispaire you could still restore it as a really nice van.

    Thankyou very much guys for your help and knowledge and assistance with everything I'm in the process of selling my house and have kept this Panelvan garaged for the 7 years I have had it but where I am moving too I have no place to keep it if it turned out to be a sandman I could have justified the money to spend and keep it in a storage unit my dream is to own a genuine sandman I'm not interested in making a fake so I think it's time to part way with this one and keep an eye out for what I would like once again thankyou everyone for your assistance greatly appreciated Thanks Dan

    I still believe the tags to be genuine sandman. Yes the body doesn't appear to be. But tags are.

    Jason, the gvm is right for sandman, as you have pointed out, but if tags do belong to body them looks to be XU4 optioned van

    XU4 was never 2000kg. It was only ever 1950kg.

    I believe this is right. Byron maybe able to back me up here...

    2000kg didn't come out until late HZ. early HZ XX7 was still 1950kg. As was the XU4's.

    I'm no expert on hz, but this one is late right? 5/79. CHZ prefix? Once xx7 changed to 2000, I believe the same weight would apply to xu4.
