The great Holden 'Sandman'. A whole generation of Aussie virgins were deflowered in the back of 'em.

Finally Black Velvet is back on the road after being parked up for about 2 and half years. Being LPG dedicated and the price of petrol, it's getting driven plenty.

HAHAHA, Very late reply!No I haven't, but as far as I am aware, all work, all wiring is there, but you need to fit the XR oil pressure sender to the block. Way cooler cluster. It's in the one day plan, but I did fit a set of white faced dials, easy job, looks good.

The Aussie "Custom Vans and Trucks" magazines, probably be worth listing on T/Me, with all the new interest in Vanning. Remember some great vans featured. One I liked was 4 wheel drive Holden Sandman, made I think, in Tasmania. Another van I saw in Greenlane, had 3 doors, ex aussie ambulance I was told. Good luck with the show.
