try making a photobucket acount and linking them from there :) nice pickup by the way if only i could afford one and fit in one!

[Mad Max]

Nice pickup, always wanted one but i got into minis just to late and their prices shot up . Keep the pictures coming though :)

[spike 25]

Thanks for your nice comments. Here's a few more pictures of my restoration so far. As we all know these projects cost a small fortune. I managed to purchase a genuine not heritage front panel complete with paper tag from factory.

Any tips and advice during my project would be greatly appreciated.

nice pics... i am lucky enough to be involved with this and it's going to be very nicely finished and Spike is really getting into it and enjoying the project. Top marks to Geoff at GC Automotive for the welding...

[spike 25]

Realy getting on with the shell i need to get it to the bodyshop by monday
so it's painted ready for the brooklands show.It's will be all hands on deck.






As you can see geoff made a frame so it all fitted back together just so.








Meat geoff shy guy with a great talent the shame about people like geoff is when the paint goes
on most people forget the labour insensive skill that went into the preperation big thumbs up
to all you guy with skill like this.

Nice work Spike that's all gone back together really nicely.

M-Mchaine must be loving all the people buying pick-ups at the moment.

[spike 25]

The wife thinks i've only spent a couple of hundred pound's on it.

[Tupers]

Don't worry we wont tell her.
