Hes asking far to much.But I hope it gets restored.Love these pickups.I drove our works one which we fitted a 2L SD1 engine and 5speed box,still with the low diff.Boy could it go.And they handled better than the cars as the were stiffer and had telescopic shocks at the front.

Brian,
George,
Albert,
Cyril,
Morris,
Percy,
Herbert,
Victor,
Miles,
Edward,
Howard,
Clive,
