HZ Ute, is it a Sandman?

[pj350]

I seriously don't think it's anything but a sandman with those photos I've seen of all the goodies that one can have it just all fall's into place ...who would go to all that effort and detail really... just hoping the chassis number matches maybe even the motor

[Innuendo]

Anyone in the family have old family photos from the 70s that may include the car even in the background?? That would be gold.

For sure

Caribbean Turquoise is a awesome colour, I've got a ZHZ sedan that colour, one of my faves.

Found the chassis number and it matches the id tags

The engine also has the original id stamp, QR prefix...

Just love the story bout the Ute / being in the family since new / and still having the bling .. happy day's.

A happy “Ute” story, a lot less utes survived that’s for sure. This is built in one of the great colours also, and knowing it’s full history is such a bonus.
