Pete only has his Pickup. He currently has his friend Andy's minus in there that he's building for him.

I do have another pickup in the garden although i've cut bits out of it to build mine so don't think it'll ever get rebuilt .

The doors and front end are fibreglass. They appear quite rigid so hopefully won't peel open at speed. :'( . Will take a while to fit because i'm doing away with the external hinges so got to weld in new a-posts.

Those new bits look nice Pete. If you don't mind me asking, who made them? (especially if you think they actually feel "rigid"!)

Just read the Mini Mag article...


One thing, not sure if anyone else has pointed it out, but at the left of page 28 ;


"Is this the Ade's Minus, or Dave's Pick-up? Both Minis sport Angel Eye headlamps"

That bit isn't written too well!

Pete.. you're now apparently Dave!

After a C**p day at Santa Pod I decided to have a look at a knocking noise from the front of mine and found one of the front shock top rubber bushes had split and fallen out. Don't know if this was my noise but still a bit worrying. Was going to borrow one from the set on Ade's subframe ( he would never notice ) but looks like they have changed the design. Now got rose joints instead of rubber bushes so will have to order a new one.

If you don't mind me asking, how much did the kit from Zcars cost for the pickup. PM me if you could, thanks

I just read a reply in another post saying that you are going to be using a different shell, does this mean the pickup shell will be for sale?

[pete]

Shell already earmarked for another project. Got to have something else to build once i've finished the one's i'm doing.
