Yes, all new additions to the list welcome. Ive been summarising the cars on the register lately as im up to the paint section of the book (what a nightmare by the way - colour charts are almost useless in determining what colours were available when!), and im still missing Sandmans in certain colours:

1974/5 HJ - 1887, 1897, 1889, 1893 and 1902.
1976 HJ - 1918, 1919 and 1852.
pre 11/78 HZ - 1894, 1936, 1925, 2214, 1932, 1949, 1955, 1958
post 11/78 HZ - 1948, 1953, 1926, 1949, 1931, 1945, 1959.

COLOURS EDITED 29/3/10 AS SOME HAVE COME IN SINCE ORIGINAL POST

Thanks for those Absinth. Do you have the rest of the data? The first one isnt a Sandman though. I have Kingswoods etc recorded in most of those colours but not Sandman.

Join a site like www.photobucket.com and upload your photos. You can also download free programs like www.irfanview.com to resize your pics before you upload them. Once uploaded copy the IMG code beneath the pic youve uploaded, then paste that into your post. easy peasy...

Question for Byron.

Are there any available Sandman exterior paint colours that you have yet to record?

Both of these are right on the changeover time. Im pretty sure with the 11/78 paint update vehicles the C code trim came in as well. Id like to know more about the second one though as I dont have it recorded and would like to see if its a Sandman. I do have other pre 11/78 1926 painted examples (with V code trim), but none with C code trim.
