can you fit a van back onto a pickup chassis and cab? so thats my question i've searched posts but can't find it just wondering if its possible cheers

Yes, both van and pick-up are the same if you remove the rear metalwork.

but why would you want to? Pickups are much prettier

What you need is a system where you can swap from one to the other in half an hour!

How about a pickup hardtop, best of both worlds.

Oh yes, I like that idea, sort of a Thunderbird 2 effort - Jonathan, would this cost a lot ?

Pick-ups look pretty cool but not so good for security or carrying lengthy timbers etc, and when travelling you're not able to reach back for things, its a difficult call as for preference. Once the van is done, space is the only reason why the pick-up will have to be on its way!

Pick ups are warm in winter and vans are freeeezing.......

I overlooked that one!

Vans rattle more than pickups.
Rear visibility is better in pickups.
You can do all sorts of naughty things in a van
