What are the last two numerals of the VIN number (skinny plate)? Ignore the Z. |

That is what the 88 on the ADR plate means ie it belongs to that VIN plate. On all HZs the body number on the BODY plate matches the PSN (last letter and numbers minus the suffix off the VIN number eg H989788 where the VIN was 8M70THH989788Z)) on the VIN plate so they must have written the last two digits of the PSN on the back of the ADR plate so there was no mixup. |

All different, except HX/Z are close.
HQ has two types - 1971-?/1974 had side flutes just above and behind the doors. ?/74 to the end of HQ had no side flutes. HQ had HQ plenum. HQ also had no provision for retractable seat belts.
HJ had HQ wiring harness and hence big plug in firewall. Clutch linkage/rat-trap support on firewall is different to HX/Z. Other firewall harness holes differ slightly.
HX/HZ are very close, with only some minor differences. Somewhere in here the acclerator pedal became welded on instead of bolted. Plus later HZs had the two clutch pedal pivot points up under the dash. Second point is for 6cyl full cable clutch setup.
WB have windscreen washer points in the plenum plus no quarter panel lights. Some body bolts became metric thread at some stage in WB - never figured out when and which exactly. |

Yep. Its an XU3 HX Sandman ute. Slate trim (18V) was only available on a HOLDEN (nee Belmont) if it was a Sandman on Australian destined vehicles. Other base models with black trim got black trim (19V). In NZ however, 18V was standard on all base models. |
