Noooooo, this one about did me in! Going back to the old stuff! Just getting started on a 1932 Ford 3-window coupe hi-boy. Taking a little different route, putting a 4 cyl Cummins diesel in it. Trying to get it done for the next SEMA show in Vegas but we may have to wait one more year at the rate I'm going.
Definitely keeping it, I'm a car hoarder, never like to get rid of anything. RHD isn't too bad, I actually got a little experience in Australia the last couple of years. In 2015 I was with a crew that drove a model A Ford from Steep Point to Byron Bay going across all 5 deserts. I drove a Fuso RHD support vehicle on that trip. Last year we drove from Cockle Creek in Tasmania to the furthest point north via the Telegraph Track so there was a lot more highway and city driving on this trip. Got the vehicle driving down, just have to keep it on the right side of the road!
Don, great job. By the sounds of things you have seen more of Australia than most. I hope that you liked your time in Tassie, spent 28 yrs there but a bit too cold for me. Thanks for the pics.
Great job!
It's so hard doing a car when it's not a local build but you've pulled it off. I'm doing the opposite of you with a 1979 Pontiac Trans Am and finding bits is interesting sometimes.
Great van and a great color.

Looks awesome,i reckon it would be easier to restore a American car in oz than a ozzie car in the states ,hey.
Yeah I agree. No one would even know the brand name Holden let alone a specific like a Sandman panelvan.Originally Posted by Kingsandman

Simply outstanding, all the effort has produced an awesome outcome.

Would love to see some black outs along the sill and beaver panel.....but big credit to you building her all the way states side. Bet it's a big talking point at car shows. Awesome work....well done
