Bern's Pickup

Discussion in 'Show Us Your Ride' started by bernjb56, Feb 12, 2014.

  1. it's begging to be used to advertise something on the tilt....I know it may not sit right with your politics, but some nice period lettering would look great (IMO)
     
  2. Heard so much about this pick up it was about time we got to see some pics :thumbsup:

    I know what you mean. I haven't put the tilt frame back on since I had the tonneau fitted. Going to wait until after the welding has been done. It's in the same mid-red colour as the tonneau so it may need look good with some lettering on it :thinking:

  10. Love it - wish I had space for one ;)
     
  11. That is very very nice.
    Now I want a pickup!
    Seeing that rusty one in this months Ultra VW got me thinking as he has a Subaru engine and it's now a daily driver.

    Here's a few that show the reason some remedial work is going to be done. I took these when I first saw it so I was expecting the ownership journey to have some bumps along the way. Got a date now of the 25th February to load it up with it's own new panels and take it to the seaside :)

    So - the load bay is full of bits of shiny metal - and one less shiny locker cover - and off to Southport it is :thumbsup:

    It's been all over Nick - most recently Chelmsford. Before that was Littlehampton. Got a couple of old MOTs from Penge.

  19. That was it Penge, I went to price up some work a few years ago and it belonged to the client. I'm glad you've got it now and not him, the git never gave me the job :)
