Thread: Panel Van Station Wagon or Sandman???

    Panel Van Station Wagon or Sandman???

    Hi
    I'm pretty new to this but I'm looking at buying a Panel Van which I was told is a Sandman.
    I went to check it out and the Compliance plate (which matches the engine and chasis numbers) says it is a station wagon, 2 seater and weighs 2200kg.
    I'm totally confused now as it's obviously a 77 HZ panel van but has a station wagon compliance plate, I can't find any station wagons that weigh 2200kg and only have two seats!!
    The body/trim plate is missing also. Could I get a new one from Holden?

    Totally confused!!

    not many 2 seater wagons getting around! could be an error on body type as GVM and seating cap are correct for panel van

    Put up pics of the tags that are there, some mistakes are made on the plates from time to time.

    Perhaps Holden were following tradition with the VF Sandman wagons

    Two seater wagon = five seater wagon with folded down rear bench = ute with a roof!! (just gotta be careful with me vinyl - lol )

    Anyway, a bit more on the question; Station wagons which came out with front bucket seats should show the seating capacity as "5". Pics of the tags would be a start.

    What part of the Compliance plate says that it's a wagon ? As XX7SANDMN has said, can you post post some piccies of the 3 plates:- the Compliance plate, the body ID plate & the VIN plate.
