lol too late
Me likey! Always Wondered what happened to this.
pity its now in a poor state & won't pass an mot without a few hundred spending on it. I always reckoned a 4dr - pickup would look good, cos the on 2dr, the doors are just huge compared to the body length.. too much ally though

theres enough chequer plating inside that to make you go mad! especially drivin it for long journeys! i.e. anything over an hour lol

ahhh so thats how it was done, doesn't look a bad job really.
Err why the funk has it got a rear bench for the front seats that just look wierd imo doesnt look too bad otherwise:thumb:
How come nobody else has mentioned the complete bodge of a fuel filler??????????????
hendrix

where is it?? lol

here, green cap:
http://i18.ebayimg.com/05/i/001/16/7b/a547_1.JPG
temporary cap, not likely to pass mot, & breather which is in a confined space, so all the petrol vapour will sit under the lid, so anything in the load area could get tainted (ie. your shopping) or worse still, burnt horribly......

I'm just thinking, what was wrong with leaving the filler in its original place??!! Wherever that maybe on a saloon? Same place as a hatch?
hendrix
23-10-08, 09:50 PM
oh yeah I see now lol, thats stupid!!
no pete they sit further back, cos of extra door lol
Filler sits same place as on the 5dr.
4drs make better pickups than 2drs, its a shame that one is a complete fcuking prize class turnip of a bodge though.
Err why the funk has it got a rear bench for the front seats that just look wierd imo doesnt look too bad otherwise:thumb:because thats how yank pick-ups are
because thats how yank pick-ups are
very true but this is far from a yank pick-up lol
Was just thinking it'd make a great work van until I saw that fuel filler - nasty!
Here's a similar one I saw at the Autograss Nationals 06:

Tidy up the green one and it probably wouldnt look too bad IMO!

Just down the road from me, have seen it about. Its nice
is that a series one turbo copy kit ?
I thought that as well but arent the S1 Skirts more recessed than that? Like from the bottom of the arch theres a 2" step back to the skirt?
I like the Black one, but as mentioned, loose the Checker plate and underseal the bed of it and it'd last a lot longer. I also love the Brnch seat, its flapping class.
Porche 911 Rims, brown paint and beige interior ftw!!
