I wonder if the doors are still different lengths?

There's a white metro pick up knocking about near me. It's immaculate and based on an mg. I'll see if I can grab a pic. 

Might be difficult atm though.

Nope. This is it, I think. After a quick google search.

This has been doing the rounds on a few facebook groups lately.

I think there may be a Hubnut roadtest of this very vehicle coming soon, I'm sure he hinted at a 604 ute in the latest livestream and surely there can't be more than one. Also, @Six-cylinder has more than enough Visas to recreate that 6-wheeler - future Field of Dreams project maybe?

I reckon I could lift the front wheels off the floor just by sitting on the back bumper.

That looks way too good to be home made

Saw an original Range Rover home brew pickup driving out of Barrow during the week. I'll endeavour to snap it if I see it again. Mr. Ramrod may know it?

It looked like this in late February, listed for £1800 on eBay. A bit of a shame but all to there own I guess, to quote stuboy: "his car, he can paint a cock and balls on it if he wants":

 

The conversion doesn't look to bad honestly, any other info on this?

I didn't know he had multiple Visas, lucky!

That's right - the 127 was available as a pick up. More recently the Uno was produced as a pick-up as well.

That's some skilled metalwork on the Buick

I would love to turn up on site with something like that. The smaller the better. I would get all kinds of shit for it lol.

The story. The patina makes it look like a bit like a modern custom recreation - but its the real thing.

This is up on ebay at the moment. I have rotated the pictures because the listing pictures annoyed me.

Is it rude to quote yourself? I don't care I've just done it... Anyhow it turns out the Punto was, and still is, available as a pick-up and is called, holy name resurrection, the Strada, it's made in Brazil.

There's also the Fullback Single Cab which is made in South Africa. Can't decide if this is Punto based or not.
