    HQ one tonner



    Can anyone tell us whether this is just a standard dash or a gts dash for a HQ model....








    Pretty sure by the plate that it was a 202 motor originally, and a 253 was put in it....the doors look good only a bit of rust in one so can use them on yellow van...

    Gauges are GTS except the speedo, dash fascia is a standard fascia with holes cut out for the Fuel/Oil and Temp/Batt gauges.

    Tonner was originally a 202 with M15 3 on tree.

    thanks for that...just checking can we use the doors on the HZ yellow van....and do you think you would get anything back on the dash or are they very common....

    It had a 4spd put into it as well.....instead of the 3 on the tree...

    Doors can be used on the yellow sandy no probs, you would probably get $150 to $200 for the gauges easy enough.

    Jen, Id be interested in the gauges for doing repros of them. We already do the GTS speedo so thats not an issue that its not a gts one. We dont do the non GTS speedo. So works out well.

    Interesting re: speedo, assume by GTS speedo you mean 140mph? my HQ Sandman ute has the 125mph/200kph speedo, a HQ 72 ute bought for parts has the standard 120mph speedo as per this thread. Wonder if HQ GTS speedo changed with intro of kph?

    jennie,that metal finger protector over the radiator is suitable for your hj as it is a v8 one and most people have taken them off and thrown them in favour of plastic shrouds....i would be interested in the front clip if its not rusty..also any wiper motors that are in excess to your needs as i get them reconditioned so they work on 2 speeds and park properly...yeehaaaa....

    We have HZ's Greg, but R says yes we do need that protector over the radiator and that is a good point....okay well the general consences is buy it, and we will wreck it and everyone can have what they want from it.....Bartering is the way to go.....
