Here's Bertie as I got him just over a year ago.

He's fitted with a 1275, which has just finished it's re-build and includes a few tweaks to improve his performance. Marina discs, servo etc:[frame]Image[/frame]

Here he is today. He's going to be a resto/custom project with the wooden bed replaced with a metal one. Currently there's no engine fitted, hence the high stance.[frame]Image[/frame]

Hi Doug,
its andre that you bought the pick-up from. Its looking cool now. Had a chat with Dave a wee while ago. I have now got a van with a very poor body. I'm wondering if you still have the body you took off the pick-up?
Good luck with it
Andre

Hey Andre,

Nice to hear from you. Bertie's cab is now painted and the windows are back in. Dave is currently sorting out the wiring loom. The engine re-build has been completed and the engine should be dropped in soon. I hope to be on the road in spring!

Sorry but the original bed has gone, are you going to get some pictures of yours on the forum?

Regards,

Doug D'G.
