The van gets delivered at the end of the week to my place. Will get you the sticker part number as the shot i got of it is blurry and from what i can make out in the picture it does not match any sticker numbers on the data base on this site for HJ.

The dash pad looks to be the correct Tan colour but the glovebox and lid look to be Buckskin so has probably been changed. Door trims look to have been changed as well along with the carpet.

yea the list of replacements and repairs is extensive, but all easy to replace and worth it I'm sure.

Max, Byron is the man when it comes to Sandman's and has a personal database from years of collecting and owners supplying tag details......

I've never seen a 1925 (MkII) until HX, HJ info I have also has HJ as 1900. The colour chart revision for HJ that was released in 3/76 didn't see the application of those colours until around 5/76 anyway, and this van is a 3/76. I also think there is a major error on this colour chart (A627) too. I'll save that for the book though!

did you get my pm Byron?

**HK1837** · 01-09-2010, 12:50 PM

Yes, just did. That number lines up fine with the rest of the ID. Should be a nice van when completed
