Pick up Restoration (Part 1)
I was hoping that after clearing away the thorns and reeds growing up this old pickup, that I would be pleased to see the general condition to be salvagable. sadly mother nature has been too successful at doing her job of pulling back to the earth, the moggie, from where she originally came. Does anyone think I can save anything here. The bonnet looks like a proper pickup one. it felt solid at the edges and springy in the mid panel area. Can anyone tell me where the bonnet release catch is on a pickup.
I\'d like to get shots \"under the hood\".<br>[img:abfb2266a0]http://mmoc.org.uk/mbimage.php?src=1238323169_9563[/img:abfb2266a0]<br><br>[img:abfb2266a0]http://mmoc.org.uk/mbimage.php?src=1238323245_9563[/img:abfb2266a0]<br><br><br>

The bonnet pull is under the dash on the driver's side.
Here's the other picture you tried to attach:

If it doesn't work, you're not hitting it with a big enough hammer.

I sold some good ones for £250 - must have been too cheap! No wonder the first guy to ask me bought them ;-)i have sides in simialr condition go for £200.00 to £300.00
There was a saveable chassis on ebay last week went for less than for £200. A new one went last week for about £700.
Cab sills and floors are not impossible - the most expensive stuff will be items like the rear bed floors...
