Bugeye won't be on the road until this summer after ground up restoration,
BUT I can't help thinking about what the next project might be.
I am kicking around the idea of a Big British Truck to go along with my LBC.
Thinking in terms of a British equivalent to a Ford or Chevy pickup truck,
50s, 60, or maybe early 70s. Is there such an animal, especially to be found
here in the US? and with a reasonable price/condition?
The only British pickup I've ever seen myself is an Austin Mini, definitely
no go for towing broken down Spridgets (not mine, only friends). A Land Rover
Defender might do, have seen military versions in which you put an entire
Spridget, let alone parts, but Really would like a Pickup not a SUV.
Anyone out there know of anything that might fit the bill? Ideas?
TIA
