Well we finally bit the bullet and are having the pickup sprayed. It has been happening over the last three weeks, complete strip down, back to metal, etc I am soo happy with the result so far, it feels really good to give the old girl a new lease of life. Hopefully picking her up some time next wee...

This is very weird, i was just about to ask the exact same question and this was the first post that came up on new posts. We are having our 1960 pickup repainted and initially thought that the wheels and grill should be old english white, however, looking at the chart attached i believe everything ...

Bournemouth, Dorset is my home, but at uni in Exeter

circuit

Turns out the float chamber was so full of crud that barely any fuel was getting through. Obviously a piece had dislodged and stopped fuel flow. So whipped it all off, stripped it down and gave it a damn good cleaning. Put it back on and voila, back to normal.

Hope this helps.

Is that with the roof down though ;)

Haha, nope, with the roof closed. Have plentiful headroom. Eye-line is just below top of the windscreen though.

Hope this helps.

In my 803cc, all original running gear underneath, it will do 55ish+. On the way to the national last year i was most happy cruising at around 45ish. I just feel harsh going any faster as i like to just hear the engine happily running in the background.

Personally i just enjoy the ride

Is the colour similar to the racing stripes on the GT40's of old?

Did you see the picture of your's taken at Classic Cars on the Prom that i posted up in the events section?

I sure did. Back at uni now so won't be driving her again until Easter.

Soon there will be three pickups in the area then
