Out of the two pictures it's the colour match for me.
Taking Fossies idea further, how about a 3/4 tilt canvas back (sorry - like my Landrover), that would look cool. You could offer different colour canvas to suit the mood of your customers.

The only thing with a tilt is that they are not particularly secure if you are transporting livestock be it lambs or collies or whatever, they find a way to get a leg or nose out no matter how tight your draw rope is.

It made me smile as I had never considered that being a townie, just shows the different issues people face.

But thinking back I do remember having similar problems in the Land rover with the kids (human type) in the back, so maybe our issues are not that different :laugh:

good morning guys
I thought it would get mixed views as we all have different choices.
I like them both but the green is growing on me fast, but more to the point the leader of the opposition (wife) has said it looks better green
so for now its silver :) :)
take care and have a good day

I think painted a sand colour so it would look like a canvas hood. I like 2 tone paint when there is a definite cut off point.

Prefer the ally back, looks more work biased.

hi Guys
Hope your all well and safe.
Just a update on the pickup, after being advertised for 5days it’s now been sold and paid for in full, so our efforts have been rewarded, and it will be with the new owner next wk.
But it’s not all good as I have gone from 2 pickups, to not having one I can play in.
So what do we do next ?.
Yes build another so look out for the next project guys
For now take care
The doc

Chuffed for you Doc, selling them is what you build them for.....

Whats next, another pick up.... or the slammed drifter..... or even a space framed off roader....

Can't wait to see which way you go.
