Question Holden Sandman - Are they making them?

Someone tell me if this is already last weeks news, but I was just at the Henty Machinery Feild Days, and at the Holden stand, they had a Holden Panelvan/Sandman.

I didn't know they were going to make them.

It was in SS form, and painted dark purple.

Sadly - It looked bloody good to.

So, anyone else heard of this car?

*edit* Oh yeah, they had the Adventra there, and the Farmers were surrounding it like blowflys to a pile of cow crap.

They have an SS one out the front of Ferntree Gully Holden.
Look pretty good in red too.

The only hassle is you cant get directly from the Front to the Back with out going the long way round.

That is why it is still only a ute with a canopy & not a REAL panelvan

Re: Holden Sandman - Are they making them?

On the car show on channel 9 a week or 2 ago they had the sandman that was a concept at one of the motor shows a couple years ago...that may have been it.

It doesn't surprise me that the farmers were flocking to the Crewman, now there is an australian built dual cab ute...they don't have to go to the imports any more. Where is that sexy R5??? Nowhere to be found.

Re: Holden Sandman - Are they making them?

Yes. Holden By Design will customise a ute to a panel van. I don't know the price. But you can get a Holden Panel Van. Holden By Design is their customising centre similar to HSV. Go to the web site for more info.
