    adds credability to originality.

    anyone have the measurements for them?
    We had the cutouts on the red, we, so we made a pattern from the red van to cut out the spoiler openings in the new nose cone of the yellow van before painting....if you know someone with cut outs, you can do similar with cardboard...bit hard to tell you exact measurements...

    Sold to ??? 1977-1989 then to bruce in 1989-2000 from Albany
    To Rick in 2000-2002 from Albany (He did the resto work)
    To james 2002-2004 from Bunbury and finally me 2004-present from Bunbury.

    If you want to have a look it will be in Bridgetown this Saturday for there show,
    Busselton motorfest this sunday so i might see you there.
    Buckskin headlining with 18V - must have been ordered with the neutral headlining option. If left as standard they came black. As Adam says, rare to find 18V with Panama, primarily as 18V only lasted about 6-9 months or so in HZ.

    Just a update I finally got the front half of the car restore and front spoiler put on. You will need the cut outs to install a factory front spoiler on. Otherwise they don't fit.

    I had a HZ XU3 van in the 80's that was 18v with neutral (Buckskin I suppose, didn't pay much attention other than it wasn't black) headlining and at the time it seemed pretty a common interior among the guys I hung around. From memory it was 4/78 build.


    B.T.W. Great looking van, I'd love to own one like it

    cheers
