There is a listing on ebay for 1958 Pickup Memorabilia.
It is a log book. The seller is asking £1000 for it, plus £6 postage.
Is this all you need to drag a derelict pickup out of the nettles and make it 'legal' again?

If it's listed on the DVLA database, yes.
Could easily be NO, but tbh, BIG money to be made from a 58 pick up - regardless of its' provedence - and sadly, buyers will overlook this when faced with such a "desirable" Minor varient.

The seller is describing it as
"memorabilia. on database". If it is showing on the DVLA database then it's hardly 'Memorabilia' because it's a V5, which is a current document and should relate to an existing vehicle. Otherwise it should be stamped 'Cancelled'.
They have obscured various details on the V5, which makes sense, but strangely have also obscured the registration mark

Sounds like the seller could be looking to make big money by asking asking £1000 for a piece of paper.
