Landy Mann Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I think the fullback (at least in the UK) was an L200/Triton with a fiat badge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martc Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 The South African single cab one has a touch of the orient about it. Further investigation confirms it too is a re-badged L200. Anyhow back to the home-made pick ups (unless someone lives in FIATs factory). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter C Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Ok, it’s not a pick up (it could be if you take a grinder to it) but it’s definitely a DIY marriage of a W126 and a Renault Express. chaseracer, Austat, Dan_ZTT and 15 others 16 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spottedlaurel Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Aircraft carrier captured by John Powell: 1966 Ford Zodiac Pickup GRW 655D by Spottedlaurel, on Flickr With the lengthy bonnet and long rear deck it has a bit of a push-me-pull-you look. I may have posted this one here previously: 1965 Ford Zephyr Mk3 pickup (Rover V8) by Spottedlaurel, on Flickr 1965 Ford Zephyr Mk3 pickup (Rover V8) by Spottedlaurel, on Flickr Actually, is it a pickup or a coupe with an insanely long bootlid? Ford Escort Mk4 Pickup Conversion (2007) by Spottedlaurel, on Flickr Some logic in starting off with a Cabriolet. 1997 Reliant Robin LX Pickup by Spottedlaurel, on Flickr Apparently they did a few Rialto pickups, but none of the Robin. 1973/74 Moskvich Pickup by Spottedlaurel, on Flickr Not technically homemade, but not factory either. 1982 Citroen Dyane 6 Pickup by Spottedlaurel, on Flickr Possibly a kit?

155V6 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 At first I thought it looked factory made because of the rails on the side,but the back window gave it away.Apparently,the photo was taken in 1981,so it wasn't even that old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a trayback, the idea of a trayback is that they don't have wheel arches intruding in the load space which is convenient and makes construction simple. Does not compute. Get a load of the two and eight of this. 12/10 for effort, but why not just start with a knackered yank pick-up, save time and have it actually look like the thing it's supposed to look like?

bunglebus Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 I never quite understood why Pixar put the eyes in the windscreen, everyone knows the headlights are the eyes. Also when Sally flashes her headlights does that mean she's flashing her tits? Good fun films though. Yoss, Ohdearme and paulplom 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
