HX Kingswood van in Deauville blue with chamois/black trim. Nice combo, and a 308 4spd to boot. It may be an Ambulance pack, if original it'll have a Premier nose and doortrims/armrests.

Thanks Byron,
Van is Deauville blue and has Premier nosecone, but the interior has been changed to 'Statesman'. Electric windows, woodgrain GTS dash etc.

What do you mean by Ambulance pack? What are the things to look for?

Cheers, Alan.

Special vehicle package BO6 (Ambulance pack). Just a package vehicle like Vacationer, Sandman etc. Was available on HJ-HZ tonners and vans. Main difference was Premier front and doortrims/armrests. All the ones I have seen (except for Dr Terry's) have had bucket seats, also and every example I have come across has had sports instruments. The Overlander in my profile picture was one. I don't recall ever seeing a 6cyl one either but they must have been made. Most are column auto although I knew of a 4spd HZ tonner example when it was with its original owner.

If you have them can you send me the rest of the numbers? I am databasing all HQ-HZ commercials now, not just Sandmans.

Thanks, I emailed you all the other numbers.

What do you mean with interior chamois/black trim? What bit is chamois and what bits should be black.

Cheers.

Chamois/black is the name of the trim. Very similar to Parchment/Black in HK. Mainly black lower bits like carpet plus crashpad and chamois seats and doortrims.
