Ol' Pikey needs a winter coat

[nigel bickle]

Ol Pikey saw daylight today -for the first time since 2002.

 

 

He's shortly to be pressed back into shiftin' duties (Harvey Frosts tow biz), so will be spending the winter outdoors; whilst his barn's rebuilt.

 

I 'd kinda like a hardtop for him -so if any of you fall across an L.w.b one - do please give me a shout

This might sound like a ridculous question but...

 

...how much of the gypsie is aluminium and how much is steel, I only ask since I was told that rot like buggery but never knew if the whole thing disappeared or just the chassis etc!

I thought at first it was YOU who needed a winter coat, being a poor, impoverished farmer type .... !

(you can use mine if you wish, I do not need it right now)

No more rust than any other steel car-they just tended to be abused a bit more than most!

 

Hiya Chris -you well? Weather good out there- or are you in the middle of the hurricane season?

There was a garage in Hyde Park, Leeds, who ran and restored a few of these, Moorlands I think it was called. Binhoker may know more.

 

Is that a Fiat 2300 Estate behind?

Yup-good spot. The spares car for my ''proper''one.
