Comments from the seller
Holden HZ SANDMAN (1978 tribute).
Currently fully registered and roadworthy and my daily drive.(when weather is good)😊.
Healthy 308 V8 with Turbo 350 Auto transmission- B&M Quicksilver-Quikshifter. Mechanically excellent.
Extractors, drop pipes sounds amazing!!!
If it’s too loud you’re too old!!
Painted in Holden VF SV6 Black model
Prussian Steel- turns heads wherever she goes! I have spent too much money on getting it to its current stage.
Interior is excellent, brand new GTS gauges (digital and old school custom) GPS for Speedo, professionally fitted to an original GTS dash out of a Sandman Panelvan, GTS steering wheel, brand new tyres fitted to 15 inch A/M GTS rims.
Brand new flat tarp.
Brand new V8 Aluminium radiator and thermo fans.
Brand new brakes.
Brand new Sandman mats.
Reconditioned Power steering fitted.
Brand new seats.
Brand new Bluetooth stereo.
Brand new air cleaner.
Battery isolated fitted.
Brand new heater core, heater and semi star works perfect.
Brand new indicator stalk.
New globes in headlights.(brighter).
Brand new water pump, housing and thermostat. Hassle free cruising and does not overheat as a lot of older V8 s do.
No oil leaks. Very healthy engine and drivetrain. V8 diff.
Brand new Valve cover gaskets.
Tub has been sprayed with rhino guard.
Dream to drive and it gets more attention than most cars on the road.
Passed Victorian RWC 2 months ago.
Will come with RWC and registration for Victorian buyer. Custom plates will not come with Ute.
One of a kind colour for a HZ Ute and has some minor chips in paint. Gets heaps of compliments for colour.
All electrics have been professionally rewired.
Ground up rebuild with a lot of money spent over years.
I will regret selling her, it is beautiful/tough and rare.
Price is negotiable however do your research before making an offer, it’s not perfect but you won’t find better unless you pay $60k plus.
Priced to sell, no time wasters please and definitely no swaps.
It will not be driven now I’ve listed her and committed to selling. In shed under non scratch cover.
