Hi Guys

After a successful refurb of my 1986 Mini Picadilly we are now working on a 1979 Pick Up.
it's in quite a bad way (bought 2 pick ups and have amalgamated the best bits which wasn't many - had to completely scrap most of one! :( ) have sorted most of the panels etc however am now in need of a load bed. can anyone recommend a decent supplier. i know M machine supplies but i hear they are not all that. am looking for top quality if poss???

Thanks

Kieran

You'll be lucky to find another supplier. I'm pretty sure m-machine are the only people making them. I got all my panels for my van from somerford minis you could give them a ring and see where they get their panels from.

m machine are the only supplier of load beds, as far as i know anyway

they are made from 2 sections though and welded down the center, but they do come complete with the box section stiffener in place which is a time saver

not got round to using mine yet so if you'd like some pics of it let me know

ps. bought mine a while back so they may make them in one piece now so best phone and ask them :-)
