19 with 63V and 5 with 63C.
All of those Brisbane examples are 30B trim, mixture of 308 and 253 4 speeds and 1 x 202 M22. All of the 308s are GV2. All are metallic except for the 202 example, and all are vans except for one ute.

308 M21 with 3.08 is pretty uncommon. Only a handful of the 308 M21 examples recorded have 3.08, most are 3.36. 3.08 is common with 253 M20 and V8 auto though. Itd be pretty slow off the mark. _______________________________________________________ If we all had the same (good) taste, who would buy all the Fords?

Just found this post. Yes I did get them. Looks a lot like a Sandman, and given it was a GMH test vehicle it may have been used in a motor show exhibit. See if you can get photos of the 1977 Melbourne motor show - it may be there. _______________________________________________________ If we all had the same (good) taste, who would buy all the Fords? |

Perhaps holden made a decision to build a heap around this time to target the summer of 75-76.?

for those that missed it a factory black hx sandman panelvan just went down on ebay as a roller with a motor for $4200. funnily enough i think i might know the person that bought this car from new considering they had ordered a factory black sandman windowless 253 with a 4 speed & no decals! but when it rocked up it at holden it had windows & the decals, so they got the hair dryer out and off they came.... he also said the paint job was very dissapointing & it had chamois trim what are the chances? its a wa build.... heres the info... Build date 10/76 GVW 1950kg Chassis number AHX02952M VIN 8M70RGJ545713X Model HX8WM70 Body number 212079-A Trim 2214-60A Paint 568-15991 Eng L32 Trans M20 Axel GV7 Tyre card in glove box is 9942992      at least i own the only black "windowless" on the register..... ;D

Including that van I have 5 x 2214 (Tuxedo black) Sandmans recorded. One is a ute so its guaranteed as windowless! Interesting that the Tuxedo HJ van recorded is a black with black trim.
