I saw a HJ Sandman the other day with supposedly the original dash and tyre placard. The number was 9947015.

That seems to be the placard for a post 8/75 HJ Sandman. It appears to be unique to that particular range of HJ Sandmans, and doesn't appear in GMH literature that I can find.

i think you will find the number was 9941015 ??
it only suits the XX7 i believe not the XU3. the post 8/75 xu3 should still use the hq placard i would think.
dont know if the 6cyl post 8/75 had a diferent one. maybe there wasnt a 6cyl post 8/75... |

would it be fair to say that if it is built after 9/75, it would be worth more as it would be easier to ID?

easier? ah i dunno if you are saying because of the tyre placard no. mainly because even though the early hj sandmans use the hz tyre placards, they are still unique to the hj also. there is no way you can fit the hq lid to a hj to make it look like a |

No Jason, it is definately 9947015. There is an obvious difference between the 7 and the 1. Whether it was a misprint or not I don't know but it is definately a seven.  I wish I had ha
